PalongAdded two more kilos of weight to this dive as the last dive i found it challenging to stay down. This dive was much more comfortable. Saw my first two sharks on a dive, ever, in their own natural environment, amazing!! Only wish i had brought my camera!

DraguoneraDove off the back of the island. Party of 16 divers in groups of two. Vis absolutely fantastic at 40m. Could see all the way down to the bottom with absolutely no particles in the water. Just like floating on air, amazing. Slightly over weighted, possibly carrying a kilo over what i should be. Wearing a 5 mill one piece.

Hastings ReefOvercast but with calm seas after the storm of the past couple of days. Took 1hr 40mins to get to the dive site (Hastings Reef, "Fish Bowl") by boat. Dove at high tide. There were four of us in our dive group and Ian, our guide, brought us on a guided tour of the reef. Brought my compact canon camera (S45) and its housing of course. Need to get a strobe for it as i am missing out on the wonderful colours of the reef. I got a few pretty good phots and can tweak them in photoshop to compensate fo the lack of light. There was a slight current running near the top of the reef so we stayed pretty much between the mid to bottom section. Hundreds of fish about. No sharks! (still looking forward to seeing one in it's natural habitat). Had a very enjoyable dive but to be honest the west coast of Ireland is just as spectacular.

Hook Head Blow HolesParked in an open field at the side of the road, about a mile back from Hook Head, and suited up. Carried the gear then over two fields to the dive site. Entry into the sea via large flat limestone rocks. Fantastic vis. Loads of caverns with blow holes on the roof of the caverns. Kicking myself i didn't bring my camera. Excellent dive.
