Hook Head Feb weekend @ Hook Head
Feb 23 – Feb 25 all-day

A sneaky short weekend in February (23rd- 25th Feb) for 2 stars and above to the Hook peninsula in Wexford. Trainees and 1 stars are welcome to join us for snorkelling and partying

The main aim of this weekend is to get all those crusty experienced divers back in the water before the season starts. We won’t be doing any deep diving as we wont be dived up but please let me know if there is any particular dives you want to do or any training you want to get in on the weekend.

I’m hoping to organise some photography/research dives as well as some general fun dives on wrecks and some relaxing shore dives.

Hook is known for its exceptionally clear waters, diversity of ship wrecks and shore dives. Its also quite close to Dublin and only takes about 2 hours from Dublin so perfect for a short weekend.

Skellig Easter weekend @ Skelligs
Mar 29 – Apr 2 all-day

Expect plenty of good diving in Irelands sunniest county. Treats include the cliffs at Bray Head, Doolus Head, Fish Island and of course the Skelligs! A UNESCO heritage sites a bumpy 40 minutes of shore and made a recent appearance in star wars ! Home to a large seal colony(200) and sea birds(60,000!), and Europes largest Gannet colony. And to add a sugar on top there is a WWII plane in the water just north of the islands. Visibility is reported to always be good and depths go anywhere from 15m to 50m! Fingers crossed for Basking Sharks!
