Not easily. Airfare is just over £1000 as of this moment there is no civvie dive operator there, although there is a civvie BSAC club on the island. Unfortunetly 'sport fishing' is now available with punters paying $1000 per day for a boat space.

This really is a special environment that is free from commercial pressures. Its a poor day when you don't see turtles, manta's or dolphins, last few years we haven't seen any sharks which is a little worrying.

An awesome place. We a9military divers) all realise what a priviledge it is to go there and be the only ones diving its waters.

Regards

Pete

Son, you're going to have to make up your mind about growing up and becoming aircrew. You can't do both.

The aircraft limits are only there in case there is another flight by that particular aircraft. If subsequent flights do not appear likely, there are no limits.
