Sounds good to me. I'd have to borrow some equipment and make sure I'm with an expert. Been a while since I last did it!!

would organise it through Al Boom they have all the equipment at their dive centre.

would be a good idea if you went to a dive centre in AD first and did a refresher in a pool.

it can be variable. normally about 6-7m but with plenty to see when I have been.
