Skelly Hole, St Abbs - Scotland

First boat dive at St Abbs with PSAC.... and what did I do? Leave my camera and torch on the couch at home! Thanks to Iain for lending me his spare torch.  No pictures :(

I was surprised to see Grant here.  He was a member of Kelvin Divers, my previous club when lving in Glasgow last year.  Grant had also moved through to Edinburgh and this was his first dive with PSAC.

Really nice dive entry site. The boat has to manoeuvre in to an enclosed bay amongst rocks and cliff where loads of gullemots reside.  There wasn't much swell and the weather was nice.

Visibility wasn't great so we didn't venture too far out.  It was a really nice scenic dive. There are lovely walls covered with soft corals, sponges, anemones and sea kelp.

During the safety stop we watched the guillemots dive bombing down into the water mistaking our bubbles for something more edible.

Dive with Roberta and Grant.
