What's Namibia like for scuba diving?

[waitressvn]

Have you been scuba diving in Namibia? What are the dive sites like inc. viz, marine life, wrecks, etc. I'm a PADI Divemaster with ~90 dives but would be travelling with someone with ~20 logged dives. Just interested to know whether it would be worth a visit!

Not great! The water is cold (thats why there is a lot of desert along the coast), there are quite a few wrecks, but vis is bad. The sea is quite active, just not a scuba destination.

South Africa is a better bet for that part of the world.

scuba dive destinations equipment information will give you some info.
