Dear All,
I’m looking to organise a trip to the Ocean Revival Project ( <http://www.oceanrevival.pt/en/> www.oceanrevival.pt/en/) in Portimão, Algarve, Portugal (Partners and Family Welcome) 19th August 2017 through to 26th August 2017.
The Ocean Project Revival is born with the objective to promote the underwater tourism in the region by creating an exceptional diving destination. For the first time, four vessels connected by a common history were deliberately sunk in the same place, the four warships, representative of a Navy Fleet, form the largest single artificial reef structure in the world with the ideal conditions for the proliferation of marine life.
The diving will be run by Subnauta, www.subnauta.pt/en/ and to dive the Ocean Revival Park you will need to be Sports Diver or above and have a minimum of 20 dives, all dives include a guide and insurance and will be from Portimão’s Marina at 8h30am (8h00am at the Diving Centre to gear up).
Each day’s dive includes two dives in two different locations, a light snack between dives and all the equipment needed for the dives (Nitrox 32 included if certified for dives over 18 meters) and a Night Dive one evening during the week.
* Costs for diving for the week would be approximately £400 (£360 if you take your own dive gear) and include a night dive.
* Flights are currently costing about £142 return via Skyscanner – Manchester to Portimao <https://www.skyscanner.net/transport/flights/man/prm/170819/170826/airfares-from-manchester-to-portimao-in-august-2017.html?adults=1&children=0&adultsv2=1&childrenv2=&infants=0&cabinclass=economy&rtn=1&preferdirects=true&outboundaltsenabled=true&inboundaltsenabled=true&ref=flights_seo_landing_page#results>
