SISAC St Abbs July 2023 trip ( July 28-30 2023 )
An opportunity for SISAC to dive with Paul Crowe of www.divestabbs.com in St Abbs has arisen. The trip is from Friday night (28/7/2023) to Sunday night (30/7/2023) with two days of diving and costs about £200 per person including accommodation. Final price depends on numbers. Food, travel , and air are extra.
Paul and His wife offer hostel accommodation for 10 in their lodge. We have block booked the lodge from the Friday to the Sunday . http://divestabbs.com/accommodation/
People can book extra days diving and accommodation directly with Paul (£30 accommodation and £60 per day diving) .
The diving will especially appeal to ocean divers and those who like reef wall diving, in addition to those who just want to get into the sea. A great description of the diving is to be found at the following websites

Need to check whether I'm up to date with payment(s) for the trip - hope I am but if not please let me know - cheers JC
During an impromptu meeting at Weatherspoons last evening Leigh-Ann, John and Anna agreed to be the Dive Manager for a day each for the trip: Leigh-Ann the Saturday, John the Sunday and Anna the Monday; which I am more than happy about.
So all trip divers please help them with any information, certification, or other details they may ask you for. Please also make sure to take your BSAC dive certification records and/or BSAC card with you as skipper Danny may well wish to see them. Finally, these are the overarching guidelines for all of us to follow during the trip:
To comply with 'Safe Diving' and with the instructions given by the appointed Dive Manager of the day.
To report to the Dive Manager any departures from ”Safe Diving” whether planned or unplanned.
To be aware that ”Safe Diving” and DO or Dive Manager’s instructions are designed to minimise risk and maximise safety of the diver and others.
Deliberate contravention may result in the DO taking action to protect BSAC members and other divers.
I'm sure you are all looking forward to the diving - so have fun and dive within these guidelines.
Best regds
Jon
