I am looking to book a holiday in the next week or so for October/November that will be diving focused and I would like some recommendations in terms of destination.
It will be myself and girlfriend, we both did SSI Open Water over New Year in Koh Tao, Thailand and haven't done anything since (so just 4 dives logged each). We are both pretty switched on, found the theory and practical elements of the course fairly easy when we did it (but are aware that we will probably need some kind of check-out dive when we go back due to the length of time off and our inexperience).
My thinking in terms of a rough plan would be to do Advanced Open Water on arrival and then some 'fun' dives afterwards for the rest of the holiday. We would be looking for a trip of around a week, I particularly want to make sure that we go somewhere with some wrecks to dive, as that side of things seems really interesting and varied.
We are from the UK so would prefer something within 6hrs flight time, something direct would be preferable. We are on a budget but obviously realise that this isn't a cheap sport!
Any suggestions appreciated.
