Last weekend was fantastic diving. Sharks at Broughton, Seals at Cabbagetree, sightings of humpback whales and hammerheads during transit, lots of life on both the OAKLAND and plane wrecks and to top it off the deep course divers & Tec gang enjoyed the 12m vis and 17 degrees. Night dives this week have had excellent visibility and the forecast promises the swell and wind will drop off in time for the weekend.
If you have not already put your name down for club day next weekend don’t miss out. We will be doing a double dive at Broughton Island – bring a picnic lunch as we will be going ashore for our surface interval at a special price for club members who book online. Then later that evening we will be having a presentation from Dive Adventures on what trips we have in store for travel in 2013.
Talking of travel – it is less than a month before our freedivers go to beautiful Tufi. There is only 1 spot left so call us now if you want to escape the winter!! If you prefer to blow bubbles there is also one spot left on Adam & Em’s trip to Bali. We still have spots on the Tonga (Eua) trip in September with Rowan, it will be a combination of snorkelling/freediving & SCUBA. Great whales and cave system too!
We have the new Go Pro Dive housings and the GoPro HD HERO2-Outdoor Edition in stock. They have proved very popular and we are seeing some great dive footage. Have a look at some footage of diving the plane wreck.
