I was going to drop in a plug for David & Yvonne, but Ken has beaten me to
it, so I'll just add an AOL style "me too"

I've dived with them 3 times (2002,3 & 4) - they're nice people, and the
diving is well organised - you can't really go wrong!

There's a few photos on my website www.paulsmithuk.com, not my best efforts
but better than nothing... :o)

I have recently been to Tenerife as my long time friend had emigrated
over there, he worked at one dive school but always recomended his
friends and dived socially with Ruth and Nigel aat Ocean Odyssey.

I my self dived with both Ruth and Nigle and found they where
excellent

Having dived with loads of other in Tenerife, I found them to be the
best out there.

As for temp well around 20C would be about right, , I was ok in my 5mm
wer suit but put a hood on when going a bit deeper.

The marine life is getting better and this last dive we got angel
sharks, Morays to cobble dogs with and baby octopi!!!!! (is that the
right word)

Have fun

I was there last year at about that time. two 3mm layers were a mite
chilly. Some people had dry suits. I think those with semi drys were
happiest.
