ππ€Ώ SCUBANUTS PEMBROKESHIRE WEEKEND! π€Ώπ
What do you do when youβve got a group of 12 Scubanuts heading to Pembrokeshire for a weekend of boat divingβ¦ and the Welsh weather has other ideas?! π¬οΈππ
You make the best of it! πͺπ€Ώ
The original plan was to get out on the boats, but unfortunately the sea swell was just too high, putting paid to our boat diving plans. π«π€π Rather than let the weather dampen our spirits, the group got their heads together and started looking for some shore diving alternatives.
And we found some! π
π€Ώ Saturday saw dives at St Brides Bay and Martins Haven, with everyone making the most of the conditions available. The weather and tides werenβt exactly playing ball, but we still managed to get underwater and enjoy some cracking diving! ππ¦π
Sunday was a different story, with conditions and tides against us, so sadly there was no diving to be had. π¬π Sometimes you just have to admit defeat when Mother Nature is calling the shots!
But a Scubanuts weekend isnβt just about the divingβ¦ ππ»
π½οΈ Saturday night saw the whole gang heading out for a well-earned meal, plenty of laughs and some serious socialising! ππ₯π»
π§ Sundayβs muffin picnic, courtesy of Amyβs baking, deserves a special mention! Because letβs face itβ¦ every dive trip needs emergency muffin supplies! ππ§βοΈ
And for those who werenβt quite ready for the weekend to end, a few stayed on into Sunday evening for a curry, rounding off a fantastic Bank Holiday weekend! ππ»
So, we may have been blown out of our boat dives π¬οΈπ€, and the weather may have thrown a few curveballs our way, but the Scubanuts crew did what we do bestβ¦
We made the best of it! ππ€Ώ
Great diving where we could, great food, great company and plenty of laughs along the way. Thatβs what club weekends are all about! π₯°π
A massive thank you to everyone who came along and helped make it such a brilliant weekend β and a special shout-out to Amy for keeping us fuelled with those muffins! π§π
Until the next adventure, Scubanuts! π€Ώππ

And Steve was also busy in the pool, working on his confined water presentations as he puts the finishing touches to his Assistant Instructor training. ππ
From first-time divers to future instructors, thereβs always something happening in our Thursday night pool sessions! ππ€Ώ

π₯½ Drysuit Orientation
With Stoney Cove on the horizon for the weekend, Lee, Luke, Tim and Josh got some valuable drysuit orientation in the pool. π§βππ€Ώ Getting familiar with the equipment and buoyancy before heading into open water is a great way to build confidence β especially when thereβs a weekend of diving ahead! ππ
π Welcome Back, Steve!
And a big welcome back to Steve, who got his diving back up and running with a Reactivation session! ππ€Ώ Great to have you back in the water, Steve!

ππ€Ώ Stoney Cove Club Night Dive π€Ώπ
What a fantastic turnout for our club night dive at Stoney Cove last Wednesday! ππ
It was great to see so many familiar faces, along with several members taking the plunge into night diving for the very first time. Thereβs something pretty special about exploring Stoney Cove after dark β a completely different atmosphere, new things to see, and plenty of excitement along the way! π¦πβ¨
And there was an extra reason to celebrateβ¦ ππ₯³
Huge congratulations to Tom Escudier on completing his 50th dive! ππ€Ώπ
Reaching 50 dives is a fantastic milestone in itself, but even better, this dive cemented Tomβs Master Scuba Diver certification! πͺπ What a way to mark the occasion β a night dive surrounded by the club and plenty of support from fellow divers.
A massive CONGRATULATIONS, Tom! ππΎ Well deserved!
