DSD queen!
|
This week, I seem to be doing the rounds on the DSD rota. Certainly making up for lost time. But.. the good thing is that the water is finally warming up!!! Yes I got 27ºC on my computer yesterday! Woo Hoo, and I was not cold at all. About time too, we area almost in July! We also have a new confined area off the beach, which means that we can now use the bit of water very close to our dive centre (we used to have to trudge along the beach to the Red Sea College area which was quite hard work for all involved). It is also nice to know that even when you are doing your open water dives there, for the skills part of the dive, there is no risk of boats trundling over your head (phew!). The dive itself is quite cool. You have a large shallow area where skills can be done, and even a little section of reef at 2M which you can visit if people have problems going any deeper. Also if you can get deeper, there is some really quite good stuff to see, a whole field of eels snaking out of the sand, several coral heads all containing a few lionfish and their fair share of other bits n bobs. And finally as you approach the jetty (from the side that the boats don’t go, I hasten to add) the chains leading up from the bottom look quite spooky cool. We just need to clear up the litter a bit. I think a good clean up session is in order. Another good thing about doing Discover Scuba Diving is that you generally get to finish a little earlier than usual, giving me time to actually catch up here on DiveBunnie, or do the slightly less interesting, but equally important things like flat cleaning or washing… Oooo. |
