Easter Bank Holiday Monday Diving

Mid Herts Divers took the opportunity of an extended session at the Blue Lagoon, Arlesey to get a large group of Ocean Diver trainees into open water for the first time. The visibility was really good and the water had significantly warmed up to 10 degrees, a good sign for later on in the year - even the large pike came out to take a look at the visitors.

All the Ocean Diver trainees were in drysuits having completed their pool training and dry suit familiarisation over winter in our 3.8m deep pool diving pit. Photo shows some of the 20 Mid Herts Divers taking part.

A great testament to Mid Herts Divers organisation of equipment for the Ocean Divers and the Instructors and also an opportunity to meet some of the members' families and have a chat in a social setting.  May Day Bank Holiday Monday will hopefully continue with the Ocean Diver open water skills sessions.
