Red Sea Trip 2010

Pack up your BCD and Regs .... we're off to the red sea again!

We have just booked the MV Whirlwind for a week of luxurious Red Sea Diving departing Shaarm El Sheik on Saturday 30th October 2010.

It seems like a lifetime away but we booked this far ahead deliberately - it will give everyone time to save up for the trip and will allow some of our less experienced divers time to get some dives under their belt. The trip has been scheduled to coincide with school half term (I know .... we are spoil sports!!)

We haven't got full details yet regarding the itinerary and departure times etc as these haven't been confirmed by the operators. The price is expected to be in the region of £1025 per person and as this is an all inclusive holiday on what is widely regarded as the best boat on the Red Sea, this represents excellent value for money.

On our last Red Sea Safari in 2007 we used the Whirlwind and we feel that the fact that, for the first time ever, we have re-booked the same boat really says it all about the standard of trip which you can expect from the Tornado fleet and Whirlwind in particular.

We will update this page once we have full details, however places are limited and we would urge anyone interested in joining us to make contact so that we can reserve a place for you for a short time while you decide if you will definitely go.

Oh ..... and don't forget NON DIVERS are very welcome!!

Please get in touch if you need any further details.

Side Scan Tests
Written by Administrator   
Sunday, 17 February 2008

Our trip to Belfast Lough on 16th February to test the side scan sonar installation was sucessfull. Although the sea state was too "choppy" to get perfect scan images we were able to prove the installation and get some "descent" images of the SS Chirripo and the MFV Rose.

On the image shown of the S.S. Chirripo you can see the detail of the deck rail quite clearly. You can find out more about the S.S. Chirripo in our Dive Sites section.
