We all wish our Instructor Schalk a speedy recovery after having a horrible car accident on the 22nd. He is now out of hospital and back home recovering with a couple of extra pieces of metal in his body. Should be fun going through security now hey :0). We look forward to seeing you back diving very soon. All our love - your family.

Ocean Echo Scuba you were such a fantastic group - WOOP WOOP - thank you for making my weekend such a pleasure. Hope to see you back here REAL SOON.

OK guess what one of our wonderful international visitors Anna Thoursie forgot to do? Have you ever seen mask squeeze like this before. Please people remember to equalize your mask while you are decending. There was no damage to the eyes and thankfully our mask - ha ha. We wish you well on the rest of your travels.

Stunning sightings as always on Aliwal Shoal. This Mantis Shrimp was sighted out in the open entertaining the clients and a pod of approximately 25 dolphins also put in their appearance on North Sands on the second dive of the day. Two nice sized Potato Bass also came in for a look and hung around in mid water. Come and join the fun :0)

Whales, whales everywhere. Well we have sharks galore and really good luck for the divers today who were down on South Sands with a mother humpback and her calf circling them. How awesome and how jealous am I. Green, green, green. Terry Locke who was on his last qualifying dive was extremely fortunate. Visibility of about 10m and water temperature still stable at 21 degrees.

Take a look at this video taken by Lloyd Williams. What an amazing sight. These wonderful creatures continue to leave us in awe at their grace and beauty.Even the experts are dumbfounded as to why there are such large numbers of sharks here, all I can say is, "long may they stay".

We love you Ocean Explorers :0) Thank you for doing your shark specialities with us this weekend. Jeremy Cliff was a very welcome face at the centre. We look forward to seeing you all back next month for your wreck specialities. Please join our Facebook group. I will post more pictures there. You are all an absolute pleasure. PS - John, thanks for the fudge. Pam

How is this for students trying to impress. Here we have Nigel shaving Mark's head with Martin overseeing the process. All our guys are getting their kit together today to go through and do their Instructor exams this weekend. Guys our thoughts and prayers are with you. You all deserve the best for all you have been through over the last 2 weeks.

Well all of you that know our reefs are going to get a kick out of this one. I lead a dive this morning to "SUBWAY" of all places and it was absolutely AWESOME AND SPECTACULAR. Schalk had two students doing their advanced navigation and one open water doing her second sea dive. Well I have never seen it like this. Loads of crayfish (yum yum), guinea fowl eel, cleaner shrimp, octopus, rock cod, nudi branchs and loads more. The amount of soft and sponge coral was also amazing. Had a really good time. Pam

Our newest Aquanuts - Amy and Fiona having their first briefing for pool session one. They are being taught by Schalk and we know they are going to do so well. Good luck ladies.

Hey everybody we have some really tired people in this picture after the first 7 days of the Instructor Development Course but we are proud to say that we now have 5 Assistant Instructors. Yes, they are on their way to "Instructorship". From the left Kenny, Kieran, Dean, Mark and Axel with the Course Director Martin looking on. Just one week to go boys. This time next week you will be writing your exams. Keep it up.
