St. Johns Point 18th and 19th August


John Dory


A good weekends diving was had by those who travelled to St. Johns Point in Donegal. The weather was very favourable for us, with calm seas and the rain holding off.Robbie West drove the club van down, thanks to Robbie for that. He and Tony Duigan made the most of the conditions with three dives each on Saturday, Yash Agrawal turned up for the last dive with the boys. While myself, Noel Cleary, Michael Touhey and Dominic Kirf did two dives. We saw a large John Dory on the dive which is a fish I have rarely seen while diving. We over nighted in Killybegs where Aiden Henry, Peter Chatterton and Derry McMahon joined us and large amounts of the black stuff was had in the Harbour Bar. Tony Duigan came out a clear winner in this event!!!On Sunday we had some lovely dives while some testing and training was been done. Thanks to Eddie O Donnell who took all the dive details for me. Finally congratulations to Tony Duigan on passing his 1* open water tests.
