What a weekend, the whole of Gauteng’s diving schools decided to come kick up some mud at Miracle Waters. Trying to take decent photos underwater was just impossible with the best visibility being 3 meters max.
Day one, we thought of practicing some buoyancy, problem was, you could not even see each other on the grid. That did not seem to bother the new divers. They did their first low visibility “advanced” dive as their first Scuba Diver dive, all in one !

Corne was born in water, lives in water en breaths water, so dive skills, buoyancy, that is all for the birds, lets go diving ! Great diving Corne, time to take it to the next level !
The commitment, dedication and I don’t know if it is sheer stubbornness or will power from Deidre took her through each skill. But she did it, and I know, as I have seen so many times, these are the one’s that makes the best divers.
With Werner, at first we could not figure out the correct weight ratio, but he really did show his kicking strength by diving with 7 kgs of too much weights on his belt the first few dives ! Then we got it, and he turned into a natural fish in water.
If you guys can do 5 dives, in almost zero visibility, challenging your direction, orientation and then completing safety stops by the book, keeping yourself neutral buoyant, you can dive anywhere! See you by the sea.
