Tuesday – Who would think surf kayaking could be so fun, if you stand up its Hawaii 50, but hurts more when you come off. Beach dive today as Dive centre boat waiting for parts. Explored the gullies off Cap Bear in S.France, viz today was superb, we were the only group there and it was terrific. Hope to do 2 wrecks tomorrow, very large cargo ships mainly intact.
Monday – Aqua T group had 2 boat dives, not as much sealife today but viz good and sea was fairly settled. Great wall dive with serious drop off in the afternoon, tea on the beach bathed in glorious sunshine. Trying out sea kayaking in morning as dive centre boat poorly, but diving afternoon.
Sunday – Sea was calmer today in Spain and Temp approx 30 degrees, Waved goodbye to the Jedi, Ruth n Heath and continued over the border to S.France, sea was too inviting to resist, so went snorkelling on a reef close to home, then a Barbi to finish off the evening, simply heaven again. Boat dives again tomorrow !
