St Martins, isles of Scilly

11th - 18th May 2008 - £450* per person

The Scillies are low lying islands just off the South West corner of England and have been a navigation nightmare for hundreds of years. There are numerous shipwrecks from archaeological sites with canons, to The CITA a container ship sunk in the 1990s and now one of many great wreck dives. This is also a chance to dive some of the most scenic and colourful dives in the UK. Beautiful Reefs surround the islands, soft corals, anemones and even hard corals cover the rocks in great swathes of colour. Bring a camera to capture the scenery and show the folks back home that there’s more to UK diving than muddy inland lakes! This is a great place to get some Uk diving experience. It is possible to dive in a wetsuit (the skipper does) but we recommend that you use a drysuit for increased comfort and warmth.

Dive with the seals! They are very playful especially at this time of year. They love brightly coloured things & fins. Despite their size and strength they are very gentle and it is always a treat to be in the water with them.
