23rd April – South Africa Presentation Evening

The Adventure starts here! We have organised a trip to South Africa for November 2015. This is a trip of a lifetime, the ultimate adventure for Divers and non-divers. You will be diving with sharks, mantas, whales, turtles, dolphins and an amazing array of marine creatures. The tour starts in Cape Town, with a chanc…e to see Great Whites up close! You will also meet seals and penguins before taking an internal flight to Durban and getting in a few dives at Sodwana Bay before moving on to an awesome Safari with a chance to see the big 5! Its then time for more shark action at Aliwol Shoal, it could be tigers, hammerheads, raggies… who knows who will be coming out to play. We couldn’t possibly begin to explain how much you will do, how much you will see and how much fun you will have! So, we have invited ‘Jamie’ over to explain everything at our Presentation Night on Wednesday 23rd April in the Village Hall at Holborough Lakes. If you would like to come along and find out all the details about this amazing trip please let us know. We have limited space in the hall and its already over half full. Call 0750 762 4911 to book or pop along to the dive centre for more details. Oh, and we have also arranged this trip at the time of year when the turtles come up onto the beach to lay their eggs. Maybe you fancy a helicopter flight, quad biking safari, kayaking with hippos or crocs… We will stop now before we get too excited! Come along to the presentation to find out more!!!!
