Few pics and vids from my dive the weekend.

30metre dive to a MASSIVE wreck called The Newcastle. It was a 3500 Tonne British steamer which was sunk by a mine in 1915.

The size of it is so hard to explain... its just bloody huge!

Anyway few pics

Also saw Dave the Dolphin and sman along with it

i did a fair bit of snorkeling there, thought i had some pics but i cant fing them. Just had a look on my local diving club website, £170 to get to ocean diver level. Does that sound about right?

sharm el shiek is FANTASTIC.

I went there when i was 15 and for the full week we did 2 dives each day.

The great barrier reef is next.

It feels like a whole other planet... its amazing.

You can settle on top of the wreck and just sit there and listen and its just silent.... its awesome!

This is what i'm used to. I think i've been spoiled. To cold for me to dive round here.

On a wreck dive there was an air pocket about 20m deep. Because of all the dives over the years you could take out your regulator and talk to people. But it is expelled air so you can't stay there long.
