The Farnes. Come with us and get acquainted with the local colony of 4-5 thousand grey seals. Clumsy on land, they demonstrate balletic movements under the water. The younger seals are even more inquisitive than the divers and often come in to take a closer look, holding hands, even nibbling on fins! Making this one of the most entertaining and memorable dive trips you will ever embark upon. Other visual delights include a vast array of anemone, dead mens fingers and many different crustaceans. There are also several relatively unusual species that favour this water - you may come across lumpsucker, Norwegian topknot, yarrels blenny and the spectacular wolf fish & maybe even the huge, deep-water anemone, bolocera.
Our package includes two nights Bed & Breakfast accommodation in Seahouses, two days boat charter, two tanks per person (air refills extra) and weights. All you need to bring is yourself & some dive kit. If you do not have any, no worries, we have a fleet of over thirty hire suits and scuba units to choose from.
Prices from £250.
Travel up on Friday, dive Saturday and Sunday, travel home Sunday.
Why not travel up a day earlier or back a day later, stay and extra night or two (at own expense) and enjoy some of Northumberlands outstanding attractions and countryside.
