Hi all,
One of our members has organised a 7 day diving trip to Shetland and as always happens, 3 people have dropped out and we're looking to fill the spaces.
Dates 31st July (Ferry Crossing Sat 30th From Aberdeen) - 6th Aug (Ferry Lands Aberdeen 7th)
The diving will be challenging, but nothing more than Scapa we've been told, so experienced Sport Divers or above are ideal for this trip, however some of the first dives of the day may be below 35m so two dives per day are only guaranteed if you are a Dive Leader or above
The cost is £670 per person, this includes ferry crossing, accomodation & meals on board and all air fills (facility for nitrox, tri-mix and rebreather if required at additional cost, if planning to dive with a rebreather please let us know at the time of booking so that I can inform the skipper).
I've attached a link to the boats site, which has links to the Shetland Diving available but I'm sure the regulars will have heard about the standard of this boat (and the quality of the food!).

And some images of what to expect from Gareth Lock;

If your interested, drop me a line and I'll put you in touch with the organiser, we're all divers from Chester Sub-Aqua Club.
Regards,
Justin.
