 Re: Diving in Dublin Bay Euge wrote: > Sorry for the bad news. I'd agree with all that. I live in Dublin but do my diving exclusively on the West/South West coast of Ireland. I tried some diving out of Dun Laoghaire a couple of times last year and wasn't very impressed: poor viz, poor conditions and bad (tide) planning by the operator. I wouldn't be bothered repeating the experience.  |

| Re: Diving in Dublin Bay Dublin diving can be like that, equally it can be spectacular. Getting the tides right is crutial. There are some great wreck dives in Dublim Bay, including the GuideMeII. There is also lots of life to see. A good operator is also very important, one who knows what he is at. Dublin Bay diving is not for everyone but can be very rewarding. It is true that the west coast offers better opportunities, but some of us have to make do with what we have. <derrizanile@hotmail.com> wrote in message news:1117017045.769507.100420@z14g2000cwz.googlegr oups.com... > Euge wrote: >> Sorry for the bad news. > > I'd agree with all that.

| Re: Diving in Dublin Bay I second that completely. Good diving is possible but given the recent weather we've had there'd be no point in Sharky lugging his gear over from U.K. Even today we have a small craft warning from Met Eireann.. :( |
