Thought this might interest some of you deep dive junkies. Nuno Gomes is a South African (of Portugese descent) and he did his record breaking dive in the Red Sea. He holds the Guiness World Record for a SCUBA dive at 318.25 metres. It took 14 minutes for the descent and the total dive was 12 hours and 20 minutes

Close encounter much rather avoided

Whilst diving a site called Waikiki off Puerto Del Carmen beach, Lanzarote, we encountered a Manta Ray or Manta Diablo, by its Spanish name. It was at 28 metres. It came in to have a look at us 3 times, before we had to carry on with the dive plan. It was like a small airplane. It spanned about 4 metres. This also includes some footage from the MV Tenderete. It's the wreck of a fishing boat about 26 metres long, purposely scuttled for diving near to the harbour entrance at Puerto Calero. Not much life on it yet. It lies upright on the seabed. The bottom of the hull is at 26 metres and all hatch covers have been removed to allow penetration of the rear and forward holds.

This is the promotional video for Squalo Diving in Puerto Calero, Lanzarote. I've dived with them twice and they are excellent. I also dived with the cameraman who made this, the day after I managed to film a manta diablo. So I'm still negotiating a price with him for the footage!  

Looking to put a trip together for next year to Lanzarote, so take a look at the video.  It provides a great insight into the diving locations and flora and fauna.

The Bianca C is an Italian passenger liner which sank off the coast of Grenada near St.George in October 1961. It is called the Titanic of the Carribbean as it's over 190 metres. It sits upright. Its upper deck sits at 30m and its hull at 52m. The vis is generally around 10-15 metres.

Eagle's Nest is a deep cave in FL just north of Tampa. It used to be concidered the Mt. Everest of Cave dives to many technical divers. Its remote, over 300ft deep in areas and very unique!

The loch is a wide sided gully with a coarse sandy bottom, which is home to a wide variety of hermit crabs, flat fish and starfish. The steep walls with deep fissures and ledges also house Norwegian squat lobsters and in the early season (march to may ), male lumpsuckers can sometimes be found diligently guarding the eggs that have been laid by the larger female.

Alan Trainer, PADI AOW, Allander Divers, Glasgow, diving in the area of the Yucatan Penisula, Carribean Sea, Gulf of Mexico, November 2008.  The dives featured are Horse Shoe Reef, and the wreck of Minesweeper C58 at a depth of 22m.  The viz was 20m+ and the water temperature was a cool 27 degrees....Sweet!
