Welcome to Dodgy Divers...

Since discovering scuba diving in 2006 we have taken every available opportunity to get
below the surface both in the Red Sea as well as here in the UK.

Dodgydivers.com was formed so that we could show the rest of the world some of what we have seen. All the pictures on this site have been taken by us on compact digital cameras which is one speciality we continue to develop.

We have also continued our diver training to broaden our expertise and open up new possibilities as well as learning valuable life saving and safety skills.

Our favourite UK diving is to be found just off the south coast at Selsey in West Sussex though we have also dived in Portland as well as nearby inshore sites including Horsea Island (which is now closed to the general public) and Vobster Quay in Somerset.

There are many dive companies around, probably more than you would expect until you start looking for them. Anyway we have found a few. In the UK, whenever possible, we use Mulbery Divers in Selsey, West Sussex - that's local diving for us. When we are abroad, normally in the Red Sea, we use Colona Divers. Both of these companies have very good reputations and safety is always the number one priority.

We trust both of these companies with our children. The children haven't broken them yet!

We hope you enjoy the website and if you are visiting it as we met you whilst diving perhaps you will recognise some of the animals we photographed...

June - July 2009

UK Diving is really warming up now and we have had some excellent dives under Selsey Lifeboat station - even a night dive!

The Far Mulberry Unit is spectacular in 8-10m visibility at the moment having dived it twice this weekend.

After a few weeks off Jo is now back under the water and celebrated by spending over 60 minutes under the lifeboat pier looking at the infestation of spider crabs which seem to be hugging our shoreline at the moment.

Jo's Divemaster Training continues. Having completed all but one of the exams she is now focussing on 'The Mapping Project' and we hope to get a bit of that done this week whilst the visibility is so good.

Less than 6 weeks before our next Red Sea adventure where we look forward to some wide-angle photography and some great diving with our children and friends.
