Dive Certification, Phi Phi Scuba
While on Phi Phi island helping out after the tsunami of 2004, some spare time was spent doing new things. This was my first ever introduction to the underworld. I went with an outfit “Phi Phi Scuba” and got my PADI open water certification with Sophie Clay. The exercise they put me through before my dive was quite intensive, in my mind, I thought they wanted to just haze me, having to swim around the dive boat six times around, I don’t even remember if they gave me fins.
The weather was so good, the visibility at 18 meters was crystal clear, too bad my camera does not do it justice. I even got to see a Tiger Shark, it moved off quite quickly so no photo capture there.
