Our first Hook Head dive this year was attended by a good Team of Divers & Snorkelers. Low tide was just before 11am & visibility was ~ 3m max & a bit murky making quite an exciting 1st open water dive for many of our Trainees – Well done!! With the tide coming in the swell rising it wa a one dive day, but we all needed a good wash.
