Month: August 2017

Today we had our first family dive. Cissy, Paul, Stephanie and Euan joined us for a two tank dive at Eden Rock.

Victoria and Poppy both swam through the mysterious caves! As we swam through Victoria thought she saw a shark silhouetted in the cave exit ahead of us. I shook my head and made the sign of a 'T' for tarpon.

Admittedly it was huge nearly 2 meters long. Certainly bigger than Poppy but not a shark unfortunately! Darn those pesky fish.

We were rather spoilt with sightings of two turtles, a stingray, hagfish and a squadron of about 20 squid. The water was stunningly clear.

'I don't know where dad is". Surprise attack from above.

A wonderful day out for the whole scuba gang.

Poppy has discovered Instagram and the art of the selfie…

Living like the Instagram Generation, blue skies and sunshine!

Victoria, James and Poppy had a trial dive a couple of weeks ago and inspired by the experience they decided that they wanted to get their PADI Certificates.

So this week they signed up for a three day course. Over the weekend they spent their time studying and on Monday they had a day studying the theory with a instructor.

A trip up to West Bay and Lantern Point on Tuesday and Wednesday for two days of training and testing with Divetech followed.

I am very proud to say that all three passed!

Quite a big step for all of them…
