We were only in Morocco for 3 nights, and 2 of these were spent on a the train between Tangier and Marrakech. But it was certainly worth doing, and we saw alot of things that we hadn't seen anywhere else. Okay we've travelled a little bit, and this is the first time we've ever seen this- the moroccan officials were actually on the ferry from Spain to Morocco, and they were checking visas and stamping passports on board.

The course was 5 days, and was theory as well as practical. As well as that, we did 2 fun dives that were included in the price. Accomodation for 4 nights was also provided, and we got the course for 268 US each. Found out that Dave actually breathes more than the average person and ran out of air twice under wa...
