Prince Harry dives in to his summer holiday

Share this:

Action man Prince Harry has once again shown his adventurous side, shunning a relaxing holiday in favour of a gruelling diving course.

Currently on summer break from Sandhurst military academy, the young prince was spotted taking scuba classes at Plymouth Harbour in Devon alongside some of his fellow recruits.

Harry took the plunge clad in a wet suit and diving mask as he took part in a pair of offshore dives, and donned a weatherproof jacket and knit cap for a speedboat ride and preparations on shore.

The Prince signed up for the five-day class, which cadets are apparently encouraged to take in their spare time, rather than immediately jetting off to see girlfriend Chelsy Davy in South Africa. "It’s the strongest sign yet Army life is having a positive impact on him," a source told The Sun.
