I did read conflicting reports about Thorfinn so decided on Odyssey! Apparently the Captain of Thorfinn is a bit of an odd-ball ?!

Apparently the time to go is during UK winter-time. The vis was very good when we went but not as clear as say, the Red Sea.

The Shinkoku is still covered in corals - our photos don't do it justice at all. Definitely one of our fave wrecks too and it just lit up on the night dive - stunning!
