点评:Wisam runs an excellent dive center, and it is the only one currently open in Libya.
He has numerous dive instructor qualifications from CMAS, PADI, etc. (see photo); speaks English; is concerned about safety and has good equipment (you need to bring a wet suit and booties as he just has dive socks). He is also involved with underwater archaeology and works with the authorities in that regard.
We dove the Tiboda ruins which is only 2 meters deep and so more suitable for snorkeling. Conditions were dreadful end May (temp. a pleasant 22 C) due to surge--we couldn't even see our hands in front of our faces and had to abort the dive. Nevertheless, we had a great time as everyone was so friendly and it felt good to be in the sea. Wisam says there are other sites to dive nearby including a wreck and reef. Summer is the best time to dive as the sea is calmer then. The Tiboda site is a shore dive accessible from a beach about ten minutes drive from the dive center.
There is a sea water tap outside his facility to rinse your booties and a decent toilet in his facility. He lets you change in his classroom which is modern, though a bit dusty.
We weren't allowed to take underwater photos due to local sensitivities, but Wisam had a camera and would have shared any photos had the visibility cooperated.
翻译:Wisam 经营着一家出色的潜水中心,它是利比亚目前唯一一家开放的潜水中心。
拥有CMAS、PADI等多项潜水教练资格(见图);说英语;关注安全并拥有良好的设备(您需要带上潜水衣和靴子,因为他只有潜水袜)。他还参与水下考古,并在这方面与当局合作。
我们潜入了只有2米深的Tiboda遗址,更适合浮潜。由于浪涌,5 月底的情况非常糟糕(温度令人愉快的 22 摄氏度)——我们甚至无法看到我们的手放在脸前,不得不中止潜水。尽管如此,我们还是度过了一段美好的时光,因为每个人都非常友好,在海里的感觉真好。 Wisam 说附近还有其他潜水地点,包括沉船和珊瑚礁。夏季是潜水的最佳时间,因为那时海面比较平静。 Tiboda 地点是一个岸潜地点,从距离潜水中心约 10 分钟车程的海滩即可到达。
他的设施外面有一个海水龙头可以冲洗你的赃物,他的设施里还有一个像样的厕所。他让你在他的现代教室里换衣服,虽然有点灰尘。
由于当地的敏感性,我们不允许拍摄水下照片,但 Wisam 有相机,如果能见度合作,他会分享任何照片。
