Diving is not just for young people, but for everyone!
On 14th February, we had the pleasure of diving with Jon. Jon is an Australian on holiday, who was looking to try diving. He had tried diving 40 years previously, and though the equipment looked a lot different to what it looked like years ago, when an ex US Navy diver had taken him for a dive.
Jon is 70 years old, and in great shape, he does swim quite a few days a week, and also enjoys his Golf and likes to snorkel.
Jon took to diving a little slowly at first, as he wasn’t used to being able to breath underwater, but within 10 minutes of doing the skills he was darting around the pool like a dolphin! We then went out to the beach, and did a 9m max-depth shore dive.
I have to say thank you to Jon, for such a great morning. He was very happy, and I was very happy that people his age are keen to have a go at scuba diving. Jon will be back here next year to complete his Open Water and we are very much looking forward to it.
