Dutch Navy enjoys diving in El Cabrón

The beginning of December is usually a busy time because of a Spanish long holiday weekend; however this year we had our hands full looking after the Dutch Navy. Their ship spent a long weekend in Las Palmas, and we sorted out all the arrangements so that they could visit us. We had two hectic days when more than 40 sailors from the HNLMS Johan De Witt, a Dutch man of war, came to Arinaga to enjoy diving in the Arinaga Marine Reserve with us. We had a wide mix of skills from absolute beginners up to experienced Divemasters, and were able to show many of the divers Angel Sharks, Rays and a lot more. Everyone seemed to enjoy the diving, and they told us they had tried diving in Dakar, but preferred it here as there was more to see in Gran Canaria.
