Hello everyone!
So I figured I would make a thread to be able to easier reach out to local divers as the vessel I will be on makes its way around the Scottish coast. This trip is my job as a research officer where I'll generally be working two weeks on, one off.

So far, the schedule looks like this:

WeekPort Location
09/05/2022Stonehaven, Peterhead
16/05/2022Fraserburgh, Macduff
23/05/2022OFF WEEK
30/05/2022Wick > Orkney
06/06/2022Kinlochbervie, Stornoway
13/06/2022OFF WEEK
20/06/2022Ullapool > Gairloch
27/06/2022Kyle > Mallaig
04/07/2022OFF WEEK
11/07/2022Tobermory > Oban
18/07/2022Oban
25/07/2022OFF WEEK
01/08/2022TBC
08/08/2022TBC
15/08/2022OFF WEEK

29/08/2022TBC
05/09/2022OFF WEEK

This is a working, evolving beast to say the least, so it's subject to change and I will add to the thread where I am if I am seeing dive buddies!
Meanwhile, if you are local to any of the current listings, feel free to reply here and we can keep in touch in case you'd like to dive with this enthusiastic, conservative, very green diver!

Looking forward to meeting some of you.

Theo

Some updates to the first few weeks, so if you are in Arbroath, Stonehaven, or Fraserburgh give me a shout for weeks commencing 9th and 16th May :D
 
Hey folks, I'm club diving this weekend but the following week (commencing 27th) we are making our way around to Ullapool!
 
I recommend Puffin Divers at Oban for gas fills etc.

Pity the timing was out of phase for me as I was in Oban yesterday.
 
so will there be time for a visit and writeup of tobermory distillery? even better if a warehouse tasting is involved
if only if only… I live in Scotland though so if you’d like to find my Scottish whisky trail through next season I’ll gladly put up a trip report… maybe… depends how coherent I am…
