    Sea adventure is the under water experience where you walk about 20ft below the water. Google it for more info

    -------
    Well did the sea adventure on the 31st march for my birthday. Which was on the same day

    I would recommend the sea adventure. Was as good an experience. Swimming with the dolphins. But had a few issues

    Got in aft bref, within 5 mins had to get out due to lightening. also in this short time got 2 nice 2" bites from a fish. No probs there.

    After a hour of rain got back in. I was last in line of 9 people going in. Within 5 mins under water remembered being told if the noise of the air stops you prob have no air. But this never happens.

    Guess what, I heard nothing the visor started to mist up! Difficult to breath then thought oops no air. Managed to get the attention of the diver after 30 seconds which he Hooked me to his air line. Got out and they were worried about me but I was fine, laughted it off and got back in. I never expected anything but they gave me the pics for free due to the probs.


    A birthday I wont forget.

    And sorry for any bad spelling. On my iPad which has A mind of its own.

    But I would do it again

    Sounds a good do. Always a better adventure if there are one or two 'glitches'.

    Did you say " That's nothing, I own a fireblade and therefore well used to be being left breathless" ?

    I reckon his missus had her thumb over the end of the pipe. I know it would have crossed her mind.

    Just a thought Remal, your not related to Blagg's are you, he isn’t having any luck either. Based on the Ying and Yang principle, at least two of us are going to get lucky this weekend. "Ling get logged onto that Euro Millions website", and if that don’t work I have got to be on a consolation prize promise.

    I'm happy to wear a commercial dive helmet but that thing looks even more claustrophobic.
