 Well done to Erin Ochoa and the Cook family (Geoff, Emily and Bunty) on gaining their Open Water certification. It was our pleasure having all of you guys come and learn to dive with us. I am sure that you will make good use of it in Fiji and the Great Barrier Reef. We are looking forward to taking you guys out diving again for your PADI Advanced Diver course.

A huge congratulations to Jim, Barbora, Mark, Ludo, Anne, Ben and Michael - last weekend saw them become  PADI Advanced Openwater Divers! Throughout the weekend we worked on, amongst other things, team contact/positioning, situational awareness and buoyancy. Significant improvements were made and the whole team righty earned their qualification. We dived in Gordon’s Bay, Camp Cove as well North Head off the boat, and had the opportunity to see a bunch of wildlife including, Weedy Sea Dragons, Port Jackson Sharks and beautiful transparent squid on the night dive. Indeed many said the night dive was the best dive they had ever done!

 

Well done to all and congratulations again. Tim and I both look forward to getting back into the water with you again soon.
