UK Dives for next year

[parahandy]

Well I was just having a think about a few of the UK places I'd like to dive and explore this coming year 2004.  Some I hope to get to in the YD organised trips others, well maybe if someone else is interested or a potential YD gig.

1. Bo Fascadale ( W. Scotland)
2. Skerryvore and maybe the wreck of the     Labrador(W.Scotland)
3. Casnwennen Rock Bardsey (N.Wales)
4. Pembrokeshire again,anywhere in this area including Grassholm or the Smalls.( S.Wales

Thats about it for the time being , sure theres more to follow.

Nearly the same;
Bo Fascadale,
Coll + Tiree,
Moray Firth,
Outer Isles,
West coast of Skye,
Anywhere warm.

I'm with you Peter, but I'd also like to sneek in the Akka in the Firth of Clyde, The Farnes and I must admit to being a little intrigued by St. Kilda.

And obviously somewhere warm too.

i'd really like to dive the scillies - has anyone been there? i'm down for my first ever scapa trip in september, i'm so excited! i'd love to come on some YD gigs but i don't know if i'd have time/money - i'll probably have to miss out on at least one club trip as it is.

here's a thought - does anyone know any areas of the country that have lots of good shore-diving sites? my boyfriend is now the proud owner of an ex-army landrover, and we're thinking of taking it away for a week's camping/driving about/diving somewhere nice (we went to cornwall in september). can't really afford lots of boat diving so places with pretty, easy (and free) shore diving would be good. i'd like to go to the outer hebrides but it might be a bit far!

Lots of good sites round about the Scottish Sea Lochs Kate. More than enough to keep you amused with a different site for a week or so within 1 1/2 of each other.

cheers, that's a good idea..... never dived in the sea lochs... am i to conclude that they have all the nice life-y stuff of the sea but in sheltered conditions?

Yup1 You can dive them whenever you want. No problems with tides or owt. Loads of different sites all the way up the West coast. Nearer the time if you get back to me I can give you better instructions on how to find/dive them all if you wish!
