Isle of Man 25th-28th July 2008

[U/W Photographer]

Left it a bit late but I will be touring around the Isle of Man with the family, between 25th-28th July, just wondering if there any individuals or groups over there interested in a dive or few, I'm a BSAC diver with about 600 dives, comfortable depth anything from a couple of meters down to 25-30 meters.

If you want a great diving platform and a friendly flexible crew I would recommend you visit Steve and Michelle at discover diving. They have a hardboat called Endeavour which is perfect in all conditions. They are based just behind the airport and nothing is too much trouble.

The underwater visibility around the island is excellent not to mention the sea life that from time to time decides it wants to jump out and have a look around (we witnessed a basking shark breaching the surface just 4 weeks ago).

I would recommend you dive a wreck called the liverpool if you get chance.

I hoped to be over there this weekend but unfortunately cant make it now. I am aware that there are several dive clubs on the island and I expect finding a buddy will be quite easy.

Have a great time.

THANKS for that Stephen.

Hi Steve

Thanks for the recommendation. We have made contact, and the weather for this weekend is looking good.

Dives this weekend include an uncharted wreck at 66m to keep the helium breathers happy, The Burroo, The Afton and something nice and scenic to round it all off. Oh and the snorkellers are heading out to the Sugarloaf Caves.

Not quite the same weather as when you were over last! And a whole lot more dive options.

Cheers

Michelle
