A fab week up in Kinlochbervie, a joint club dive of Chester SAC and Icicle Divers.
A good mixture of scenic dives, Caves, Gullies, Walls, Vis was amazing!

Launched from Trearddur bay

Two sites were dived, the Kimya, loads of nudi’s and spider crabs, then on to the Norman Court which always has great Vis!

We have plenty of future dives pencilled in, see you out there

The invaders are thought to have travelled from eastern China to Europe in sediment on the bottom of ships' ballast tanks

The future of Chester Sub-Aqua Club is firmly tied to the continued use of Chester City Baths. Many thanks to all who have supported the baths.

We have an opportunity to put the building on the map / board by having Chester City Baths as a landmark on a new version of Monopoly, the board-game that has been around for many years.

Please see the link below, and help the baths to get the publicity and recognition they deserve.

The public is invited to suggest Chester landmarks to be featured on famous MONOPOLY spaces, as well as the language on the Chance and Community Chest cards. Suggestions can be made in two ways:
1. By email to: [email protected]
2. Via the official MONOPOLY: Chester Edition page. Nominations will be accepted for consideration from 10am on Friday (March 22 2024) until 23.59pm on April 4 2024.

Please pass the message on. We don’t have long!

Massive thanks to Keith and Eddy for all their hard work in organising the Christmas club night on Wednesday. Great food and a brilliant fundraising effort.
Thanks also to all the members who joined in and helped with the evening by taking part and donating gifts for the raffle and playing the ever popular 'roll a pound' competition. Also the auction for the go-pro camera and equipment that added a whopping £70 to the funds (thanks Sam). All your efforts helped raise a massive £835 towards club funds. We had over 50 members present.
We also presented the four annual awards to worthy recipients.
Cartagena Trophy - members vote for significant contribution - Dave Parry.
Diver of the Year - for the most progressed diver of the year - Beth Thompson.
Instructor of the Year - in recognition of their support and efforts - Geoff Bacon.
Snorkel of Shame - best gaff of the year - Eddy Brown.
Have a great Christmas and we'll see you for more diving in 2024.

A busy evening at the club. Trydives and snorkelling trydives in the pool. A marine archeology talk in the bar area. The last session of the compressor operator course in the equipment room. Thank you to Duncan for the talk and to the instructors and helpers involved in the trydives and compressor course.

I know it’s the time of year that you can’t be bothered going back out when you get in from work, Club nights have been a bit quiet lately but we need some support for one of our members tonight, Duncan Ross, who is giving us a talk on the Wrecks he has dived on when doing some archeology research for his planned book that he has been writing.
You never know you might want to join in with N.A.S on their next project.
20.00 in the bar tonight 😃

Duncan Ross is doing a little talk at the club on the 13th December about his project Underwater Archaeology Tour of the United Kingdom.
Here's an article that was published on DIVER recently about a few of the sites I've included. All welcome 😁

Scratch the surface a little, and the diversity of historical underwater sites in Great Britain is quite surprising. The most obvious are the shipwrecks lying
