Hi, we're setting up for our February 2006 trip. If you are curious as to get to know the fabulous diving in crystal clear arctic waters off the Norwegian west coast, come on and join us on our trip to Hitra outside the Trondheimsfiord.

We're there for a whole week, from February 24.th to March 3.rd.

For convenient transportation we are setting up a comfortable minibus service from Oslo. So wether you arrive in Norway by ferry, train or by air, we can pick you up and get you there.

We can help with equipement rental, partial or complete. Dry suit experience is mandatory, but other than that our diving is flexible and can be adapted to any level of experience.

Watertemps in February are usually around 6-7 degrees Celsius. Airtemps can vary from minus 5 to plus 10, with about 12 daylight hours. No long boatrides to dive spots, and the sauna is warm and ready for you every day :)

What's more, we normally have viz up to 30-40 metres at this time of year!

We live in comfort at the Knutshaug Fiskeferie "rorbuer".

You can read more about this trip at: http://www.turut.no/hitra_februar_2006_eng.htm

We also have a few open spots now in October: http://www.turut.no/hitra_oktober_2005_eng.htm

I should add we've had 5 divers signing up for the February trip in the past two days since we released the dates for the trip :)

Non from outside Norway so far, but it would be great to have someone with us! Where are you Danes, Dutch, German, Swedish, Polish, English, French, Finnish and more, divers?!

I'm the guy who will be your dive leader. Unfortunately i only speak Norwegian and English (fluent). I can't figure out much German language but I did have French in school for four years. Ca va?!
