Scuba Radio Interviews at Legends in the Bahamas

Since the Dive Legends Festival first appeared on August 9, 2006 when four countries were represented, the interest has been high from the worldwide community. This year we expect a higher international interest with the Legends Festival on the mainland and in the exotic tranquility of the Bahamas. Before attending, pick up a history book on diving to read about the legends you will meet at the venues. They are also writing the dive history articles that appear here.
