Advantages: Loads of wrecks, varied and interesting diving on offer Disadvantages: Cold, far north
...Indiaman sank in 1754 in 10 –15 metres of water, after hitting a rock. A scramble down the steep shore makes it possible to dive without the assistance of a boat, but all that remain are a number of iron cannons. A pretty site though, good for a second dive and I have seen Conger Eels here.
Around the corner in Gulberwick Bay is the massive Pionersk. A Russian factory ship in 22m, she sank about 4 years ago after her anchors failed in a storm. This is a really top notch dive, her proximity to the shore does mean she’s breaking up slowly, but for local divers this means its worth diving her several times a year as there is often something new to see.
Other notable wrecks around Shetland that I haven’t yet dived include a WW1 E-boat in 35m outside Baltasound harbour in Unst. The ill-fated oil tanker the Braer sank at Quendale...

Advantages: good location, reasonable room price Disadvantages: may be quite difficult to book from abroad
...Grand Plaza Parkroyal Hotel is located in the good area of Yangon, Burma/Myanmar. It is situated near the downtown area and the standard of the hotel is acceptable even though it is not a 5 stars hotel. Just beside of the hotel, there is a shopping plaza for clothing and food. One of the biggest cinemas in myanmar is located beside the hotel. Bogyoke market, which is one of the toursit attractions for selling jewels, clothes and traditional presents, is very near (3 minutes walk) from the hotel location.
Hotel staff are friendly and helpful. The uniforms represent all races who live in Myanmar/Burma. Most of the local people hire conference rooms for business purposes in this hotel among so many hotels in Yangon....
