A big thank you to Island Divers Tenerife October 25, 2007

When booking a diving trip whether in the UK or abroad, it is as much about the people you dive with as the dive sites you visit. This is easy to sort out when one is booking as part of a group on a liveaboard or major dive trip but is somewhat more daunting when travelling on your own and to a lesser extent as a buddy pair or couple. After taking advice from other divers who had visited the islands before and going particularly on the recommendation of friends with whom I have dived regularly, we booked a couple of days diving with Island Divers in Tenerife. We chose Tenerife as it seemed to fulfill our criteria for decent diving in the sun with some good beaches and close enough to do a long weekend away .
As I was completely responsible for sorting this holiday out for Lisa’s 30th I was nervous that I got it right. Choosing Sonia and Graham of Island Divers for our diving and accomodation was definitely the right choice. They create a relaxed and friendly atmosphere which can put anyone at ease. The banter is excellent and the dives superb. With Lisa’s track record of diving with turtles (or not as the case may be) getting the opportunity to dive with the friendliest of turtles set the tone for the week, the addition of the rays dive on the Monday made it even more special.
Island divers is family run by people who enthuse about diving, in fact Graham and Sonia are just about to have a break and go on holiday, guess what they’ll be up to, they’ll be diving, in Grease costumes………….
Thank you Sonia and Graham for a fabulous week, you add that extra bit that makes good diving into a memorable diving.
All the dive reports from the week will end up on here as I write them, for now, check out the video clips of the turtle and rays dives.
