Ideally something you can do with the same people every week so you get to know each other.

Not much chatting during scuba either.

I've met a ton of friends scuba diving, that's why I included it.

Sure you can't talk while you're diving, but that makes the conversation between dives more interesting. Lots of people passionately comparing and talking about what they saw. You're probably stuck on a boat together during your surface interval, so naturally you get to know people.

Also sometimes it's nice to just do an activity without people talking constantly.
