Description

I am off diving over Easter to Portland. I will be diving the COUNTESS wreck (14m) and LANDING CRAFT wreck (17m) on the 3rd of April and LULWORTH BANKS drift (Scallops) (20m) and Chesil bay on the 4th. I have booked through http://www.scimitardiving.co.uk/ I have used them before and are very good. There is a hotel next door which is very cheap http://www.hotelaqua.co.uk/. I am traveling down with a friend and my dad will be already down there. There are 7 places left on the booking site. Sorry not much hand holding, but you can do everything online. Here is something about the place http://www.ukdiving.co.uk/places/coastal/articles/portland.htm. I have 3 people coming so far.

Sorry the dive costs (you need to log in to see them) are £17 for the harbour dives, £25 for the drift and £0 for the beach dive so all diving for the weekend would be £59. People can do what dives they fancy. I intend to bring up at least £20 worth of yummies up with me as a part of my commitment to sea search J

Extra information / Trip summary

Easy start to the season, although more expensive than bog diving! Chances of being blown out aren't high as harbour protects all by the roughest weather.

Oh I might dive on Monday of Chisel if the weather is good.
