MARINE RESERVE DIVE

Just for a change I have scheduled a weekends diving away from the Lermontov and Port Gore for August 7/8th.

Plan is to dive one day out at Long Island and Motuara Island with a stop off at East Bay for a kai dive for scollop’s and then a day locally or out side Tory Channel, depending on weather.

Long Island Marine Reserve

The Marine Reserve has been established since April 1993 and covers 619 hectares, over the years fish life has re-populated the reserve, in some areas crayfish up to 5 kgs in weight are common and are very friendly.

For Dive Club members the weekends diving will cost only $170.00 to $190.00 depending on how far out we get on the second day, this includes cylinders, air and all kit if you don’t have any. If you aren’t a club member this is the ideal opportunity to join up and get a great weekends diving, meet other members and take home a feed of scallops. I had my first feed of Port Gore scallops last night, even though the row was a bit small the muscle was large and juicy as usual and melted in the mouth.

Check out the club page for more details on the club.

UPDATED 27 July: Only 2 spaces available

safe diving
