Cocos Island

   Costa Rica  Pacific
My first roll of film had 36 (different) big critters, one on each frame!

Isla del Cocos is a small island (8 sq miles) 255 miles off the Costa Rican coast and is one of the top 10 dives worldwide.

Sharks galore! Hammerheads (famous for schools), oceanics, whalesharks - you name 'em, they're here. I did get spooked on one dive when one big feller gave me the eye and I got out quick!

water temp was 75F so a thick wetsuit was needed.

Best sites - Manuelita islet and dirty rock

minard islands (loch fyne)

   United Kingdom  Atlantic (European coastal)
Loch Fyne is a great place to dive all year round and whatever you prefer your type of diving will be found here. Air fills can be found at Inveraray caravan park this is air only if you need a mix, Tarbert is the place you will need to go to. There is a slipway at the caravan park that can be used what ever state the tide is.
There is also a cafe on site that is very friendly and worth a visit while waiting for fills. Basically all along the Loch can be dived.Once stayed in a b&b at Furnace and instead of driving to the area that was intended to be dived we just walked to the bottom of the garden and went in there, two great dives had by all.I must add that although l have stated depth at 30 meter`s there are places where this Loch exceeds well over a hundred meters if you are thinking of diving the loch please ask a local for advice, if you are not sure you can buy a map of the Loch indicating depths. I am happy at 30 meters and always find plenty to see at between 5 to 30 meters so l am sure that will cater for most divers.
