Diving Trip

Hello,

I am new in Doha (since March 2012) and I haven't dive in 2012. I used to dive at least once a month in 2011, and since am new, I need a dive buddy and group of fun people to plan diving trips together.

Please let me know if there is any diving trip in the nearest time, count me in!

Cheers,
Amy

Clean Up Arabia 2010

On Friday November 5, 2010, at 7:00 am, a very important environmental event will take place in Doha.
Clean Up Arabia 2010, an annual event spearheaded by the Emirates Diving Association.
The campaign aims to raise public awareness on the hazardous effects of marine debris to health and marine environment.
The clean up activity will cover land and underwater of the Sealine Beach at Messaid. A force of approximately 50 volunteers, divers and non-divers, are expected to participate. Volunteers are mostly individuals who take heart in this worthy cause.
Company volunteers, especially those who are situated in the coastlines or who have projects involving marine activities, are all welcome to join.
The earth is our home, it is our responsibility… we can make a difference.

Looking for a Dive Buddy

Hey all,

My buddy is flying back out to Florida in a few weeks leaving me without a diving buddy. It's not too smart to go out by yourself and I am now looking for a new partner. I know one or two spots myself, but am really interested in exploring some more areas. I've got all my gear and a capable 4wd vehicle.

If anyone would be interested in helping me out, I'd greatly appreciate it! Feel free to drop me a PM or an e-mail.

Cheers!

Beach cleaning...?

There was a beach cleaning today.
But nobody posted. I just knew as when I wanted to rent tanks they told me as they were exhausted everywhere...

This group is alive?

IMPORTANT NOTICE

Hi Friends

Three weeks back we went to Pizza Hut near Airport next of Asiana Restaurant and one Bangladeshi boy happened to stop us all of a sudden near the parking (it was around 9:30 pm) and begged us to buy the small perfume bottle (something like Oudh) saying he has no money to eat and is surviving by selling the perfumes. And we gave him QR. 15/-. He told us to smell and take any one, but we just took one without taking the smell (though the kids wanted to smell, we didn't open to smell it).

As we don't like the smell of the perfume, we just kept in the car (now at home) and thought of giving it to one of the labourers in Lancy's office.

Photography Course

Hello, i just wanted to share this email i received today. I was on vacation in Dubai and i found out about Gulf Photo Plus which organizes Photogrpahy workshops and courses for all levels, i asked whether it is also possible to do it in Qatar but they said they tried 2 years ago and there wasn’t much audience so they were not encouraged, this year they are giving it another shot through the Level one and hence if successful why not the other levels. So it will be great for all of us Photography enthusiasts to have this here. So spread the word, Thanks.

I want to buy some equipments...

how do you buy your dive equipment here in Qatar?

Do you buy in the local shops?
I know only three shops, is there any other else?

Do you buy online? Where? How do you ship to here?

Hey ladies/Gents

I am glad to announce that Fluid MotorUnion is coming back to Qatar in few weeks to perform more custom work and some flash tuning on few super cars.

Fluid MotorUnion will open a new branch in Abu Dabi/Qatar starting 2010. We are proud of being the leader of flash tuning world wide. We can re-program any car ECU and guarantee you a lot more power than your stock ECU allocation.

We mostly deal with European Cars ( BMW, Benz, Labmo, Ferrari, Astons, Bently, etc )
Please check our website and feel free to reserve spots for our next visit.

Check out some of the gains we made on cars in Abu dabi during our last visit:

APO Beach Clean Up Qatar (Umm Said) 2009

Qatar Divers ( www.qatardivers.com ) is the sponsor for Tanks and Tents

Once again we spared our precious 24 April 2009 Friday in celebrating the annual Earth Day through beach and underwater volunteer work.

We have collected a substantial quantity (approximately three cubic meters) of all sorts of trash, most of them non-bio-degradable.

Just come back from Oman.

Absolutely great diving spot!

I was with Oman Diving Center. Very serious ppl. Maybe quite expensive, but nice and serious.

Oman accomodation is generally expensive, but this inconvenience can be sorted out ;-)
