This post follows on from the previous scuba round up, there has been plenty going on, although as ever there had been a few trips missed due to adverse conditions. Chesil Cove I have been trying to dive Chesil all year, but being based in Brighton makes this a pretty long haul trip. I finally... Continue Reading →
I've been diving for just short of ten years, and this was the first trip where I have seen a coral reef, and I have to say I thought if was amazing. There is just so much life in one area that you can struggle to take it all in, the colours, shapes, formations, all... Continue Reading →
Diving this year has so far been a mixed bag! From zero visibility to 10 metres or more, from perfectly long slacks to a non stop current throughout. You get the picture, it's been a bit unknown, and this is why I'm posting this post now as once again the shuttle boats have been cancelled... Continue Reading →
So it has been a long time, since i have had anything worthwhile to post about on here. All said and done, I have not been up to much, just the normal things that normal people do, like work and rest at weekends. however the last couple of weekends I have actually got off my... Continue Reading →
It has taken me a long while, to get around to writing this article. Partly due to the motivation to write about past life experiences, when my current experiences are less than interesting! It’s fair to say that my time as a scuba diving guide was for the most part fantastic. The opportunity to get... Continue Reading →
So you've already seen my Nudies, now it's time for my crabs! Or more precisely a collection of photographs of all the Crustaceans and a couple of molluscs that I have come across on numerous dives! Hermit crab Prideauxs hermit crab Sea hare Cleaner shrimp Anemone hermit crab Locust lobster Unfortunately, at the moment, we... Continue Reading →
As the title clearly states, I have a whole bunch of nudibranch pictures to share with you! I love these little guys, they come in all shapes and sizes. I'm forever searching them out on dives and after two months of continuous diving I have spotted quite a few! I love these little guys, they... Continue Reading →
Since I've been working in the bay of Port 9 in Korcula, I have amassed a ton of dives in the bay, whilst conducting try dives. An opportunity for the non diver to get in the water and have the experience of diving under the waves! Most of the time we see something worthwhile, an... Continue Reading →
It's safe to say I'm way behind on any posts I was intending to write, however I will hopefully be catching up at some point! I'm still working as a Dive guide, and working hard! To put it in perspective I have been working for the past twelve days straight and have completed 38 dives... Continue Reading →
I managed to cover my first day as a guide in my previous post. It was a busy day, and in itself set the tone for the rest of the week. Not that the week has been off my feet busy, however it has been full on and super enjoyable! I have dived many of... Continue Reading →
My previous post covers our first dive, and this was my second. I say my, as jess decided after the faff of the first to skip this dive, unfortunately for her this was a much better dive, with way more to see. We descended a fixed line and soon the obvious protrusions of a wreck... Continue Reading →
It has been a while since I last took a trip below the sea, and from a friends recommendation we decided that a trip to Tarifa was needed and whilst there we would get some diving in! As soon as we arrived in the area I liked it, and that says a lot, as although... Continue Reading →
Since the beginning of this trip I have looked forward to scuba diving somewhere hot and sunny, with clear waters. It has taken an age but finally we took the plunge and got our first couple of dives in the bag. These dives were at the south east corner of Sardinia, around an island called... Continue Reading →
