Underwater world of Grenada

DSCF7021

 

Grenada really is a piece of paradise.  Two thirds of my luggage allowance was used by bringing my dive equipment with me for this sailing trip – I like to explore the countryside, the coastline as well as the gorgeous underwater world!

I spent many days scuba diving, limited only by the money needed to pay for the privilege – however, in Grenada, you can see some stunning things just by snorkelling

Here are some of my shots doing so from this stunning little cove

The water was beautifully warm – around 29oC which, if you are a scuba diver, you know it is toasty warm!  Teeming with life

Cant wait to dive elsewhere in the Caribbean!!  Meanwhile, I completed a Rescue Diver course and am now thinking about working towards Dive Master………..will have to get back to work soon though!

 

About Jill Beckett

I hope you enjoy reading this blog, it is written purely for entertainment value as a way of keeping a journal for myself and helping to stay in touch with family and friends around the world. I started writing this blog in 2011 when I gave up my job in the UK as a midwife ("The Baby Catcher"!) and began circumnavigating Britain on a 45ft yacht. I try to "Live Life to the Full", "Think out of the Box" “Live a life less Ordinary” and any other cliches for making the best of it that you can think of! We really do only have one life, and Im trying to make the very best of it, I hope this blog inspires you to do likewise. Work sometimes gets in the way, and I often return to “baby catching” but I try to have as many adventures as I can. I have written about some of these here, from my time circumnavigating the coast of Britain, living in Bali and training as a Dive Master and Scuba Dive Instructor, sailing from Malaysia to the E Coast of Australia and living in Australia and New Zealand. Drop me a message, I would love to hear from you and see what you think of my blog! Mwah x
