Hong Kong diving?

Has anyone done this?

I can see there are some dive shops there.

Is it worthwhile?

I'll be there for a few days end of November.

Thanks

Think you will have more fun taking a ferry over to Macau and gambling.

Just for fun, go to YouTube and check airliners landing in Hong Kong.

Let us know what the diving is like.

The diving is not good. I'm living in HK now, not worth. But you can get good dive gear at discounts and tax free here, so it's a good place to do some shopping. Pro Dive in Wanchai's a good shop with fair prices.

I've been 2 Hong Kong back in the 60's water didn't look 2 clear then. Hate 2 C it now. If U get a chance check out Tiger Balm Garden 4 a tour, or Repulse Bay, might B a better place 4 diving.
