Newsletter 2026
Hello there everyone
Well, that was January! Hello February!!
Gerald and I would like to wish everyone a blessed 2026. May all your dreams come true, and we believe that this year is going to be a good one for everyone.
We spent our December holiday in Ponta Malongane where we had THE amazing time ever! Flat seas, warm water, warm days with cooling rain, and made lots of new friends.
We are planning our trips for the year and hope you can join us on some of them.
Our first trip for the year will be to Sodwana Bay the weekend of 26 February to 1 March 2026.
We will be staying at Coral Divers with accommodation starting from R225 pp per night. Let us know which accommodation you would like to book and we'll book it at no extra costs.
Bookings will close on the 31st of January with a 50% deposit and full payment by the 25th of February. We still have limited space so get your deposits in if you'd like to join us.
Red Sea - July 2026
Our Red Sea trip is going to be the highlight of our trips this year and is due to depart 4th July 2026.
We have 2 options, going south diving Daedalus, Fury Shoal and Elphinstone, or North diving the wrecks.
We have limited space available, so if you want to join us, give us a call.
We would need a deposit of R8000 to book your spot by the 1st March 2026.
Final payment will be due by 01 June 2026, which can be paid off monthly into a dedicated account at FNB.
This gives you enough time to start saving for your dive trip of a lifetime!
