We have had another week of flat calm seas absolutely wonderful.  Its been so calm Melissa has even been out on the boat and even Pete has been diving whatever next?

This week we were joined by Maggie and Richard, Master Scuba Divers, for their Surface Marker Buoy Speciality and some fun recreational dives.

We have had a great week with Maggie and Richard they are great divers and its been lots of fun meeting them and we have all enjoyed their company whilst out diving on the boat.  So on their first days diving, Alice and Pete took them to Girano arecife for their SMB speciality, they both did really well and have continued all week practicing putting their SMB’s up, as they say practice makes perfect.

Richard and Maggie joined us with Terry, Matthew, and Paul and we headed off to Yellow Mountain.  The two dives were really great and on the second dive they saw 5 large octopus which was incredible, as well as Anemones, Cleaner Shrimp and Annulated brittlestars.

In the afternoon Melissa and Alice went off for a nice warm bath in a private pool, with Darren and David.  David was completing his Bubblemaker experience and they all had amazing fun playing games in the pool including tag!  Darren meanwhile was completing his Discover Scuba Diving pool experience.  They both did incredibly well and are all back soon and even mum will be trying first snorkelling and then diving, and David will be able to join in diving as he will be 10.

Melissa and Alice were reluctant to leave the warm bath like swimming pool but headed back to the shop for more administration duties.

Maggie and Richard were back and joined by James for their dives at Poco Naufragio and The Moon pools.  A bright early start clear blue skies, vey calm sea, and two great dives.

On the first dive Melissa and James explored the shelf as James is an open water divers, they had a great dive and saw several gorgeous anemones as well as two Wahoo sprint past, there is always so much life to see on the shelf, with Red back cleaner Shrimp, Barracuda, Groupers and then as Maggie and Richard went deeper with Alice they saw a Large Stingray plus black and fangtooth Moray eels.

The best part of the morning was the dolphins who surfaced near the boat as we were moving off to our next dive, a pod of 4 dolphins put on a nice display for us all, and it was also funny to see the seagulls actually getting some of the fish the dolphins were chasing.  Its so amazing seeing the dolphins, and as we were all leaning over the sides you could see the dolphin just underneath the water appearing to be looking up at us watching to see what we were doing

For their second dive of the day they headed off to The Moon Pools, where Pete joined Alice so that she could learn this dive site.  They had an amazing dive with the sun shining through the pools, gorgeous Octopus and Cuttlefish at this dive site.  A fabulous morning out on the boat for all.
