The International Scuba Diving Hall of Fame (ISDHF) is an annual event that recognizes those who have contributed to the success and growth of recreational Scuba diving in dive travel, entertainment, art, equipment design and development, education, exploration and adventure. The International Scuba Diving Hall of Fame was founded in 2000 by the Cayman Islands Ministry of Tourism. Currently, the hall of fame exists virtually with plans for a physical facility to be built at a future time.[1][2]
