Well what can I say lol Not the best of sites to dive but if you want to get wet then I suppose it will do lol

Last Summer I got dragged along to sunny Swanpool as a body for a friends Rescue Diver course! You know diver plays dead, diver in distress!! lol

Well I have to say that if I hadn’t have been playing dead then I’d probably have gotten a bit P**sed off with the lack of things to see here!

Well that is apart from the multitude of golf balls that litter the bottom!

The photo above has a funny if not interesting story to go with it!

While being bored to tears as a distressed diver I happened across this strange blue thing floating just off the bottom!

Imagine our surprise when we turned it the right way up to find that it was a plastic dolphin rubbish bin that had been wash out to sea! The excitement I here you say! lol Well after a mind numbing 40 minutes faking injury and death this had been the highlight of this some what uneventful dive! lol

Equally bored my fellow divers and I decided to turn the recuse dive in to a search and recovery! Armed with our trusty lift bags we struggle insurmountable odds to save our blue friend!

The total dive time here was 60 painful minutes!! Thank good for the dolphin lol
