Hi all,

I'm organising a club trip to Scapa Flow this September for 6 days diving
(2 dives a day) from the MV John L (http://www.divescapaflow.co.uk/)
and currently have 4 spaces available.

Price is £435 including the diving and 7 nights B&B accommodation but getting
there is extra.

We are a friendly, easy-going club and will be taking a mix of divers from Sports
to Advanced.

A bit of additional information:

Air, weights and cylinders are included and nitrox is available on the boat for a small extra charge.

Flights are currently available for in the region of £160 - £200 and there will likely be a vehicle driving up from London to take some of the weight off the flyers.

We will arrive in Kirkwall on Saturday 4th, dive for 6 days and depart again on Saturday 11th September 2010.

Scapa Flow is billed as one of the top dive sites in the world due to the large number of wrecks, including those of the German High Seas Fleet scuttled there after WWI, but it doesn't all have to be about rusting metal as the wrecks are teeming with life, including the elusive wolf fish.

And some Scapa Flow links to whet your appetite!:

There are 2 spaces left on the trip for anyone who's interest has been peaked although 1 of those is provisionally filled.

If you're giving it some thought please feel free to get in contact to discuss

Temperature is apparently between 12 to 14 degrees
