Scuba
In Korea will continue to run its shark dives throughout
the winter. The dives are held indoors (in the Busan Aquarium),
so the water temp is the same year-round. Our January dive
dates have been announced. You can check them out on our
Shark Dive Page.
Scuba In Korea will also provide dive news
throughout the winter. Several clubs will be running both
dive and non-dive courses (the PADI EFR, for example) this
winter. Just because its cold, doesn't mean you can't still
dive!
Merry
Christmas!

In Korea had its shark dive trips featured in the
November 5th edition of the Korea Herald. We'd like
to thank Matt Graveline for coming down and diving with us,
and for writing the article about our trips to Busan Aquarium.
You can view the article here.
Also note that the USD deposit for the shark dies has been
adjusted to $35 USD PER DIVER if you pay by PayPal. Note that
this may change at any time to reflect the currently unstable
exchange rate. Thank you for your understanding. |
