Whale Sharks Make Me Smile

Me and Isabelle, a fresh new diver (yes, be jealous!) were enjoying a nice late afternoon dive at White rock, no other boats around, just swimming among the resident massive shoal of yellowtail barracuda.... and then out of the blue we spotted an even bigger fish, Mr Whale Shark!

Sport Routes



Well finally after a couple of years we have some sport routes on Koh Tao. One on Sairee Face (Good Morning Koh Tao - 5b) and two on Eagle wall (I got a feeling - 5c and Clear Horizons - 5a). They are all small and designed for training and in the next few weeks we will round the routes out with another five ranging from 5c to 6b+.

There is till no intention of putting in hundred's of routes, but the new ones will round out the climbing on Koh Tao allowing us to take people on guide sessions of both sport and top rope and open the way top teach sport leading in the new year when our new lead climbing instructor arrives.

Never sitting still!!
