    EOI: Exmouth diving trip

    Hello PSB!
    I know there are a fair few divers here and I should imagine there would be a fair few who would be interested in learning how to dive.
    I have been having a look at the possibility of having a PSB only diving trip in Exmouth and it has come to the stage of needing an EOI.
    The package I am looking at offering is all inclusive (except beer). It will include shared dorm accommodation, breakfast lunch and dinner, airport transfers, all dive gear hire and 2 dives per day either at the Muiron islands or on the Ningaloo reef.
    Anyone who doesn't have their PADI open water (or equivalent) are still encouraged to come, we can work towards getting you that certification whilst you are up here and then the chance to log some dives in a really nice environment. We may even be able to swing a PSB instructor if we're lucky.
    Obviously everything needs to be finalised and dependant on numbers I expect it to cost roughly $350 per day all in, not bad for food, board and a private boat charter. All you need to do is get yourselves to Learmonth airport.

    Let me know if you are interested.

    How many days?
    Gutsy question. You're a shark. Sharks are winners, and they don't look back because they have no necks. Necks are for sheep.

    I'm thinking of a week with 5 days diving. This gives us some leeway with weather and enough time between your last dive and flying out.
    Open water course participants may need to come a day or two early to get some of the theory and pool sessions done.

    EDIT: Yeah, next couple of months but obviously dependent on you guys, I'm always here. Bearing in mind November is called "blowvember" up here so possibly December. It'll be hot but the water will be beautiful and the fish life will be going crazy.

    Awesome, let me know what dates suit you guys then we can get something that works. If we are far enough in advance the flights shouldn't be much more than $300 return with Qantas.

    With a car capable of taking 11 (8 comfortably with gear) I'd also be interested in taking the road up and sharing costs, would probably work out around half that price.

    I'm (hopefully) starting a new job in October so any time is as bad as any other time, just please not a week either side of Christmas.

    Just speaking to the PSB Uber instructor and he's said hat it may be possible to get the theory and closed water (pool) dives done in Perth prior to coming up here.
    Might make things a bit easier for those interested.

    Will these be Oooo look at the pretty stuff hippy love in dives or shoot stuff and eat it dives ?
    It's better to be thought stupid than open your mouth and remove all doubt

    Pure speed in sixth gear on a 5,000 foot straightaway is one thing, but pure speed in third gear on a gravel-strewn, downhill, ess turn is quite another.

    There will be no shooting whilst blowing bubbles, sorry mate but you know my views on that (plus it's illegal!).
    So yeah, hippy shit.
    If you want to go spearing I'm sure you could be pointed in the right direction though.

    100% agree it's cheating, and don't agree with it.

    However I was under the impression it's not illegal here. Certainly is over east but I didn't think our legislators had put much thought into it yet.

    No need to be sorry, I know it's just a courtesy and a sign of your good manners and nature as is this
    As I hit the reply button it occured to me that this is an "Exmouth Diving" trip and as a duty of care it could not be allowed
    I am aware of your veiws and Rear Admireable Starfish shares the same veiw, cant hurt to ask though and it's not illegal

    Most definitely interested depending on dates.

    Even if I miss the trip, I will be in Exmouth over the Christmas / New Year period so would be super keen to tee up a couple of dives anyway.
