Camping and Diving trip

[divingdingo]

we'll just have to play it be ear then. maybe i'll stop being such a pussy and go straight from diving in gozo to a camping trip!

where are you working all june?
presumable you have the weekends free? we could always go for a short weekend jolly.

anyone know some great shoredives in the cornwall region?

i know kirstie and paul have some local knowledge that will be valuable.

Borrow lots of gear to make the trip more comfortable. We take a 5 man tent (for the three of us), Campbeds to get off the ground - and handy for storing kit under, an electric hook up (phone charging, Microwave, TV, etc..), a gas stove/grill, a BBQ, camp chairs, camp table, camping lights for the tent at night.....


.... oh and a small trailer towed behind my large estate car

Try at least to find a private spot and somewhere where you can hang your gear to at least air off.

I love my little campervan. You won't get me back in a tent if I can help it

Yeh i'm working for Plymouth Uni all June so yeh weekends free, and possibility to finish early on Fridays, so we could drive somewhere, get a dive in Friday night, then dives in during the weekend as well and come home Sunday or whatever.

as the others have said...

concentrate on one or two camping sites, with washing/toilet facilities

don't dive in a wetsuit - use a drysuit for comfort sake, camping and wet will be too much after a while.
Similarly use singles, unless you are camping next to the dive shop that has a boat and 4x4 with trailer

find a chippy and a pub within walking distance of the site

a tent each, with an airbed

If you join the Camping and Caravanning Club their sites should have good facilities. We are in the Caravan Club with our campervan and the facilities on their sites are excellent (no tents allowed though).
