The Annual Photo Rally at Scubadive West is great opportunity to improve your underwater photography skills and meet like minded divers participating in a fun competition.
Join us for this years event:
Scubadive West Photo Rally 23rd to 25th October 2015.
Wide Angle photography on boat dives.
The competition is free to enter and only photos taken during the event can be submitted. Scubadive West offer a special package for registered participants, unlimited shore diving, one boat dive and all of your air fills during the event for just €40 per person!
There are three categories: Wide Angle Photography, Macro Photography and Compact Camera Photography.
Our Shore Dive is bursting with marine life and offers unlimited opportunities for Macro photography. Scallops, Spider Crabs, Hermit Crabs, Pollock, Wrasse and all manner of Blenny are photogenic, and usually willing to have their photo taken!
Chilled out Super Models on the shore dive
There are plenty of opportunites to get that winning Wide Angle photograph at the shore too. With the ’60 Footer’ ship wreck lying in 13 metres depth at the shore here and the Guinness Record Dive tower nearby, it is easy to find good composition for that wide angle shot.
Get your buddy to come along.
Abundant Marine Life at the shore
Participants that would prefer to boat dive all weekend can avail of the Scubadive West Special Boat Diving Package, 4 boat dives and 3 air fills for just €130.

We even have a compact camera category, so you can get involved even if you don’t have a high end camera or years of underwater photography experience!
In fact it is a great opportunity to learn tips and techniques from other divers.
