March 2006 Bad weather forced beach dives, but wel worth it - visted the 'new' artificial reefs Returning in 2007 for new sights, wrecks etc...!! Gib is great out of the water as well - a little piece of England in the Med; recommended!!!

April 2005 loads of wrecks some off the shore. lots of dive sites with picos being a 62m wall dive. currents very unpredictable and very strong. viz from 4m to 30m. lots of life and loads of noise. water 14 to 18c. need to be a competent confident diver to get the best out of the area.

May 2005 There was a Huge Conger on the SS Mollymock we had a very nervous dive trying to get a good photo of it, very camera shy.
