In short, yes, a joint scuba and snorkelling trip can work but as with all trips only with a great deal of planning and working out everybody’s expectations of the trip. Firstly, let me mention, this isn’t going to be a trip report about visibility, depth or marine life, but a report on how snorkel and scuba diving can be combined.
We will meet on the beach in front of the snorkel trail around 10.30am. Spend the morning on the trail and the afternoon using Naiad for trips around nearby coves.
Meet on Lulworth Beach, Dorset, at 1pm where we will be picked up by Naiad to snorkel dive around Stair Hole. Have a play and chat on the beach while waiting your turn. Each snorkel dive from Naiad costs £5.
Fish and chips on the beach around 5pm
Night snorkel dive, for those who dare, on Lulworth beach starting at 6.30pm.
Sunday 2nd October 2011Lundy Island, snorkeling with seals from the charter boat Obsession I out of Illfracombe.
The boat trip takes about 1 hour each way.
Due to fierce tides and sudden changes in the weather experienced around Lundy each child snorkeling MUST be accompanied by a responsible adult.
The trip will cost £40 per person and a £20 deposit secures your place. There are a limited number of 12 places.
Sunday 24th July 2011No school the next day!!!!
We plan to use our RIB – Naiad – to drop us off at Stair Hole and snorkel around the rock formations.
If you are interested in joining us please put your name down on the board at the club house.
There will be no limit on numbers.
Our next snorkelling trip is to Pagham, West Sussex on Sunday 26th June 2011.
Places are limited and must be booked.
