We recently received this great picture of two desperate divers. Both Erik (left) and Stephen (right) did their PADI Divemaster course with us back in 2003. Stephen went on to become a PADI Instructor, and he is now a PADI Staff Instructor working part-time in Thailand. As a Staff Instructor, Stephen does the normal courses…
New Staff!!! We had a new addition to our staff when Tina gave birth to our daughter. Rebecca Olwyn Emily Thomas (middle names from both her grand-mothers), was born at 5.30am on 12 April, she weighed 3kg and was 50cm, and both mother and daughter are doing fine. The father is also ok, …
A few nights ago we went on a night dive and found this Spanish Dancer, a nudibranch that is about 1 foot long and has a very large frill that makes it seem as though its “dancing” when it moves. A very beautiful creature that is not seen often, Neil (yes he is still here!)…

On the same dive as the crocodile fish, I was lucky enough to take a picture of this really cool nudibranch. This is the first time that it has been spotted and unfortunately there was a small current so it was hard to get a really sharp image. Just shows you that you can always…
This ugly critter is called a crocodile fish, or sometimes a giant flathead. It’s about 1m long and lies around thinking that its camouflage is so good that it cannot be seen, but it doesn’t know how good the dive guides are at spotting things like this! I heard that three of these were spotted…
