A new week and surprisingly bright hot and sunny weather for the entire week. Its always great to get out of the dive into the sunshine.
A quiet start to the week with plenty of time for us all to start catching up on all of the jobs that don’t get done when we are all rushing around. Its great when you have an empty in tray after a few days of administration work!! As everyone knows though it doesn’t mean that Melissa desk is tidy its still a tip just the way she likes it!!
This week we have been joined by Martin and Chris. Martin was here to complete his PADI Advanced Open Water Course. On his first days diving he chose to complete the Digital Underwater photography, Boat and Navigation dives. He did really well and was happy with his underwater photos. Chris has joined Martin on all his Advanced dives, despite already being an Advanced diver its good practice for him.
On the second day of Martins Advanced course they headed off to Tabaiba to complete the Wreck and Deep Dives they were also joined by Richard for his last dives this visit to Tenerife. They all had two great dives and saw a really big Grouper much to everyone’s delight!!
More PADI training courses Neil has also been here completing his PADI Open Water diver course. Neil was here in September to complete a Discover Scuba Diving experience and loved diving so much he has come back to get his certification.
Day one and off to the pool for his confined sessions, watching the DVD and working on his last few reviews. Neil was an excellent student and got all of the confined skills really quickly.
Then for the first day of the Open Water dives we all headed off to El Puertito, Alice teaching the Open Water Course with Neil. Neil did great underwater and really enjoyed getting back into the sea and was happy that he also managed to see a turtle.
Melissa was also at El Puertito with Darren, Martin and Chris for some fun recreational dives with the turtles. On the first dive they had an excellent time despite limited visibility and saw a Turtle, Cuttlefish and scorpion fish. On the second dive the visibility had lifted and they had a fantastic dive being followed by two turtles for most of the way. Darren, Chris and Martin were really happy with the personal experience that they had with the turtles. Chris and Martin are back next week for more recreational dives with the rays!
On Neils last day of his Open Water course, we started nice and early off to the hotel to complete his exam! Neil did really well with his theory and so the multiple choice quizzes and exams were no trouble at all. Then we headed off down to El Puertito to complete his last two training dives. Neil did really well and enjoyed diving with a turtle and seeing so much aquatic life including a cuttlefish, White Bream and Roncadors. Congratulations to Neil for successfully passing his PADI Open Water course, we hope to see him back again soon.
A perfect end to a great week a nice glass of wine shared with friends!!
