Every one was up bright and early this morning, we had breakfast at 8! They were all cunning in our planning and we came up with a good one today! It all began with a trip over to the Rhone, which was our first dive of the day, no pictures though I am afraid, but there was some pretty big lobsters having hole wars by the sounds of it!

We then headed around to the bay on Salt Island, the 2 boys went mountaineering, first they had to cross the water to get to land, they apparently didn't want to get any wetter than they had too



They then scaled the cliffs



Then disappeared for an hour or so, they came back with some great glass and pottery and tales of wild goats and cats! The rest of the group headed to the beach in search of sea glass and were very successful too!

It was then a fabulous snorkel after lunch on man head point, they all loved it there. The weather was great today, it seemed a bit more like summer is supposed too, quite flat, enough wind to sail and flat seas, I liked it!

We decided for the next dive to head on to wreck alley and were not disappointed. We visited the Beata first and that was quite murky, but good



Rich got some great pictures of this one and the other 2 wrecks too, on the way over we saw a pretty little sting ray













We also saw a tiny Nurse shark, hiding on the bottom and some big barracuda, it was a great dive.

We acquired new crew and went for a sail



They did a good job too! The rest had cocktails and nibbles!
