A Quick Farewell

Big Blue's in mourning! - A couple of great divemasters just left for monsoon season! - so here's a post and tribute to the stunnin Bex and Georgi -safe travels and see yous soon!!

Full Day Trip

A Great trip to start proceedings - the weather was pretty bright and hot, and Banzai boat set out for the distant site of Sail Rock!

We descended straight past a school of about 2o or more batfish at 15m - looking surreal, and uncaring of the divers as usual, straight to a massive school of huge barracuda at 28-30m! After swimming with these monsters for a while, Georgi and Maria started frantically pointing out towards two large objects in the distance - I finally figured out they were sharks!!

The trip lasted all day, at the end of which all participants were well knakered - and well satisfied! Big smiles all round - and a big thanks to Banzai and its captain Peack for making it happen!!

Hey Hey

We thought an internet record of the divecentre's trips and underwater antics would be a great idea both for ourselves and visitors - So here we go!!

Introductions and the like will be made as the log progresses, much more fun when there's a story behind things!!

Anyway - on wth BigBlue's first blog ha ha!!!
