Deciding on which holiday suits you best can be traumatic enough.
We at Tony Backhurst Scuba Travel pride ourselves in finding the right holiday for the needs and experience levels of the diver. Extending this policy to The Scuba Travel Store and rather than just give you another Characterless catalogue of dive gear, our aim is to give you good solid advice based on experience, guest feedback and vital statistics of the destination. All of this information compiled will hopefully benefit and guide you in the process of buying the right gear for the right trip and saving some money that would be better spent on a couple of cocktails on the top deck or hotel balcony.
Introducing our Dive Centre Manager
Steve, our centre manager has finally returned to the UK after 15 years of under and above water exploration. Steve started diving when he was 16 and hasnÕt stopped since. Having clocked up around 3000 dives in places as diverse as Yemen, Mozambique, Kenya, Tanzania and Thailand to name a few. He thought he would pass over the regs to the youngsters and start thinking of having a few youngsters of his own. He brings a treasure chest of knowledge along with a few good tales to our scuba centre. So if it is good solid information on what works best where, then ask for Steve.
