In the April issue of Diver magazine, Andy Blackford wrote in his regular feature that he didn't like diving in the 'lukewarm' waters of the Mediterranean, that the Med offers no 'proper wildlife' and that in the south of France, 'you could easily find yourself swimming between two stools'. He also states that the Med is 'a slightly grubby, lukewarm body of water', and recommends that you 'don't attempt to dive it'. Does anybody out there agree with Andy, or is he just talking b*llocks?
