the
Team
"We believe a great experience starts with a great team."
— said someone some time.
(Actually, Fraser made that up.)
Who are we?


Fraser
Diving has been part of my life since I was 12 years old, a friend's parents took us on a discover scuba session and I was hooked.
From then on I took course after course and have been lucky enough to dive & work all over the world in some incredible places.
For me, a quality experience on the dive day is just as important as the dive itself, that's what I hope we can bring to our guests at the Highland Basecamp in Lochaline.
Fee
My love for water started early, my grandparents gave me a dive mask when I was 8. And none of us knew a snorkel should go with it. So my intermittent gasping head popping up to the surface was the sign I was okay.
​
Thankfully I learnt fast & for 5 years I have been a dive instructor in Iceland. Now I'm looking forward to continue my passion in many different ways in the beautiful and vast nature of the Scottish Highlands.


What Fee says about...
Fraser
There isn't any type of diving that Fraser hasn't done, and if you do find one, then he's probably thought about trying it at some stage. His energy for the sport is infectious, and he certainly knows his valves from his o-rings. Actually what Fraser doesn't know about scuba diving isn't worth knowing.
​
He's worked in all sorts of climates across Europe and the Middle East and is just as happy in a worn out wetsuit cruising a reef in 25c water as at the end of submerged lava tube in zero degrees with an hour's swim back to shore. Now he's taking all he's learnt and applying it to his own adventure in the Highlands of Scotland.
Running his own dive centre has been a dream of his for years, and Highland Basecamp is the bringing together years of diving and scientific experiences into his own business.

Fee
What Fraser says about...
Fee's name has unfortunately nothing to do with getting paid regular amounts of money, but is more related to the Scottish Fae in pronunciation. In her free moments you'll find her in the nearby natural water bodies being a water faery.
She’s gained a great deal of guiding & driving skills in the past years working as a diving/snorkelling instructor and northern lights guide in Iceland. She’s got extremely good driving and diving skills (Tripadvisor speaking) and is always called out for her big smile and infectious joyfulness.
​
Fee has the warmest of hearts and as well as having loads of great German efficiency is always keen to go the extra mile to make anyone feel at home and like they're around friends.
