been driving as long as I've been diving...
odd cos I have never been asked to give a lift to a none driving diver....there must be a statistic in there somewhere.
I chose a new vehicle on the basis of Izzy and I diving and weekending a lot to get tot the sites, hence a semi camper converted VW transporter (new shape), insulated (good to minus 25 degrees, we tested it in St Anton) and fitted with al basic essentials...also doubles as a work van, so I can run it through work.
its great, camp in car parks, harbours, camp sites etc. bestplace is st Abbs....we are always first on the car park as we get there the night before...and theres a toilet. last up in the morning, always get a parking spot and usually travel at quiet times. fab.
get a licence, its very liberating.
we spent a great week ROI summer before last diving and wild camping on the beach. wa one of the best most relaxed trips we ever did. total peace and quiet with huge sandy beaches to your self in the evening and early morning... the sun sets were incredible.......diving was excellent too.
