Gee, what a comedown. Its home from Tenerife, and the following weekend its over to Stoney Cove and normality. I’m diving with a newcomer to YD, Graham Terry who posted that he needed a buddy, so I took him up on the offer when my possible buddy for the day couldn’t make it.
We met up […]
The final two days of my diving adventures in Tenerife, and the end of my first diving holiday is in sight. The first day we return to El Paraiso, where we had seen the marbled ray earlier in the week, and we are joined by Shaun for this dive, who I buddy up with as […]
The day dawns with another nice sunny day, but oh boy did that hide what was to come. We trundle off down to Torviscas and set everything up at the dive bunker as normal, and then we head out to todays dive site at San Juan. However, on arrival we find that all […]
Another day, another dive…
After a long think about things, I decided not to do the first dive of the day at Rad Azul, as the rest of the gang were talking about going over a drop off down to 54 metres to look in a cave, and I just did not want to go there, […]
Day 4 of the diving dawns, but today its a little duller, with some black cloud hovering over Teide. Its not going to rain though, because it doesn’t apparrently! Another two dives today at El Paraiso and El Puertito. El Paraiso is a shore dive, down 63 steps onto a beach from […]
Day three dawns bright and sunny (there’s a shock in Tenerife!), and after another leisurely breakfast, its back on the dive bus for another days diving. After collecting the kit from the dive bunker, we head out along TF1 to Los Abrigos, which for those that know it is a dive site where you […]
Day two dawns, and its back into the dive bus down to the bunker in Torviscas, and a nice leisurely kit up session with coffees all round. Back into the bus and we travel around the coastline on TF1 around to Punta Prieta, which is a beach entry dive from a small cove at the […]
My god, its finally arrived, and I am finally in Tenerife. My brain is screaming at me, as I am driven along the TF1 motorway from Abades down to Torviscas, to head to Michael’s dive centre. This trip has been 6 months in development, as regular YD’ers will know from being completely tired of the […]
Sunday comes around and after diving at Guildenburgh the day before, I had managed to arrange a dive with Callum (Calski) at short notice, so we met up at Stoney Cove at about 9.00 and both managed to get into the bottom car park fortunately, so that was a good start. These were to be […]
