Full Circle turns to Britain for diving adventure

Full Circle Expeditions, the world-girdling diving adventure holiday organiser, turns its attention to western Britain and Ireland this summer for a two-month exploration of top dive sites from Cornwall to Scapa Flow.

Zuza, the 22m yacht which will carry Full Circle Britain divers along the western seaboards of Britain and Ireland
The group has joined forces with Zuza Expeditions and divewear company Fourth Element to create the Full Circle Britain project. Divers are being offered time slots aboard Zuza, a recently refitted diving research vessel, as she voyages from her home port of Falmouth to Scapa and back again.

A 22m cutter-rigged sailing yacht, Zuza will combine diving with cruising under sail off some of Britain’s most scenic coastlines. The boat offers comfortable accommodation and food for up to eight guests.

The planned route takes in south-west Cornwall, the Scilly Isles, Lundy Island, Pembrokeshire, Anglesey, the Isle of Man, and the west coasts of Ireland and Scotland. Changeovers will take place in Penzance, Milford Haven, Holyhead, Oban and Galway.

Well-known diving personalities, including Full Circle Expeditions director Monty Halls and TV presenter Miranda Krestovnikoff, will join Zuza at various stages to meet and dive with guests.

Single-week slots cost £595 per person, and can be booked in multiples if desired. A two-week run from Oban to Scapa Flow and back costs £1250, while a 10-day trip around the west coast of Ireland, starting and finishing in Galway, costs £750. Group discounts are available.

Call Zuza Expeditions on 01326 374989, or go to www.fullcirclebritain.co.uk

FREE TRIP: One of the weeks aboard Zuza is up for grabs as a fabulous prize in an easy-to-enter competition running in the next Divernet Xtra email newsletter. Look out for Xtra in your in-boxes around mid-June, and if you haven’t registered to receive it, do so soon! To sign up, click here
