Blog – August 2011

Camel's clean up tradition will get a boost this September! Throughout the month we will lead the Project Aware Debris Month of Action by inviting our guests to join us in sprucing up our reefs. All volunteers will be supplied with gloves and mesh bags and our instructors will be there to assist in completing data cards. Project AWARE says, “This data paints a true picture of debris issues beneath the surface.” We want to help change waste management policies around the world with our efforts too!

We love meeting new friends at dive shows and then catching up with them in Sharm! In the last months we were particularly happy to dive with the lucky winners of 3 holiday competitions held during the Big Scuba Show in London, where we offered diving activities. The creativity of Natalie Marie Bubb, who won the kids’ drawing competition, granted the whole family a fantastic holiday. Natalie experienced her first breaths underwater with her sister Jessica Louise (pictured here). They wrote us: “Diving with Camel Dive Club was amazing. I had one of the most relaxing and exciting experiences all in one go! The instructors were also very reassuring and easy to trust. During our diving session we saw Lion fish, Parrot fish and Clown fish; whilst snorkelling we even saw squid!". Many thanks for the nice feedback about our staff to Chris Ellwood and Lucy Potter who wrote :“No matter where you go in the world, what you do or how you do it, it’s the people you meet who make your holiday memorable“. Mike Ford was also very excited about his 11 dives, done whilst his partner Yve completed the Open Water Course: “The standard of organization and tuition given by Camel Dive Club was second to none, and everyone was most helpful”.
