What a fantastic week diving Arran with Wreckspeditions! - Jason Coles, our skipper for the week aboard the Starfish Enterprise, delivered an absolute cracker of a trip. We explored an incredible variety of dive sites including Sandstone Ledges, St Molios Bay, Fullerton Rock, Holy Isle, Hamilton Rock, and the no-take zone. Marine life did not disappoint — we encountered dolphins, octopus, Highland dancers, catsharks, scorpion fish, butterfish, and scallops galore. One of our group members even spotted the rare sighting of a crawfish! If you can name it, chances are Arran has it. Jason’s knowledge of the area was exceptional. His dive briefings were detailed and insightful — clearly coming from first-hand experience diving the sites himself. Safety was always a priority, and he made sure every diver got in and out of the water smoothly. He even helped carry gear on and off the RIB — although we may have resorted to the puppy-dog eyes once or twice 😉 All in all, an awesome week. I’d highly recommend Wreckspeditions and wouldn’t hesitate to dive with them again!

The best just got better. - The best just got better. Wreckspeditions moved out of Dunoon for the month to present divers with a unique opportunity to explore the Arran Not-Take Zone. This was a magical experience - visibility, marine life, and even dolphins, all in abundance! Hats off to Wreckspeditions skipper Jason Coles for delivering an unforgettable week!!

Best skipper in Scotland - Well what can I say about this skipper?! It was my first time diving and meeting jason. I'd love to say the guy was average but unfortunately I can't he was a top skipper who couldn't of done enough for us all. From helping get gear on the boat, to kitting up, to helping get back on the boat and dekitting, the guy just couldndo enough! Also, to the most amazing hot chocolates I've ever had from a boat skipper. The hot chocolate even had squirty cream, marshmallows and sprinkles on top! The baked flapjacks was also fabulous, even if it was a day late lolz. Though seriously, as far as skippers go he is definitely the best out there and the boat and set up was top notch and I would definitely not hesitate to jump aboard again! Plus with the skippers air and nightrox stations up and running, it was a divers dream! I hope to be back soon, thank you again, Jason, for taking care of us all. Until next time, Johny

Best dive charter I’ve been on in the UK - Such a great place to dive with a skipper that goes above and beyond to take the weekend to the next level! Amazing scenery above and below the water. On site fill station including nitrox bank. Cheers Jason can’t wait to be back next month!

Private 2 day dive charter - Continues to be one of the best skippers, always there to go above and beyond what's expected. With addition of a new fill station with banked nitrox it makes the experience even better. First class operation

Another great trip out with Jason - Another short trip up to dive with Jason at Wreckspeditions was a roaring success. Although the weather gods were against us, Jason's skills and local knowledge meant we were able to dive both days - the Akka, Gantocks, Seagull, and Landing Craft. Jason makes it look easy, his dive briefs are excellent, and the apres dive care on and off the boat is second to none.

Very professional ! - Went up to Dunoon to dive 4 wrecks in the Clyde. Unfortunately the weather wasn’t great so we had to change plans but we still managed to get 4 wreck dives in over a 2 day period. Jason, the equipment and buildings are all first class - everything is super professional with the best dive briefings.

Exceptional Diving with Wreckspeditions - We had an incredible day with Jason from Wreckspeditions! Eight of us dove the Akka and Peacock wrecks, and Jason made the experience seamless from start to finish. His expertise as a skipper and diving instructor shone through, from assisting with kit and equipment to perfectly placing the shot lines. Surface pickups were smooth and topped off with the highlight of the day—Jason’s hot chocolate, which honestly gives Starbucks and Costa a run for their money! We also enjoyed chatting with him about his inspiring work with Ghost Fishing UK. A fantastic day out that we’d highly recommend to any diver. Thanks, Jason!

100 out of 10, would recommend!! - Jason was absolutely AMAZING on our recent trip to the lochs!!! He quite literally saved our club trip after we experienced problems with filling cylinders! He went out of his way to accommodate our needs, gave us invaluable advice about dive sites and accompanied a couple of us on one of our pleasure dives. If I could give him a 10 star rating, I would!! And he would get an extra 3 for the amazing hot choccie and flapjack ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
