Searching to recover

Posted by Russell in Untagged

Our Search & Recovery students had a good days diving at the Waterfront recently. A special well done to them for finding all the items we'd hid for them to find and recover (plus a few extra items, who knew the sea had so many hub caps!!!).

Still great vis in Plymouth

Posted by Bex in Untagged 

Bex

With settled weather over the past week diving this weekend proved to be excellent with 5-6m off the boat, and a good 4m from the shore.  Divers had good vis at Hillsea Point and Tinker Shoal and round to the Scylla as well.  With flat sea even I wouldn't have been sea sick!!!

Diving for this weekend is on the website so have a look at http://www.plymouthdivingcentre.co.uk/schedule/view_month-5146.html or give as a call at the centre.

Hope to sea you all in the water soon.....

Great Night Dive at the Waterfront in Plymouth

Posted by Bex in Untagged

Just got back from a great night dive at the waterfront in Plymouth, visability ranged from 2-4m.  Loads of marine life too, apart from the usual of velvet swimming crabs, edible crabs and sea anemone also saw two sole and a 'little cuttlefish' never seen one of those at the waterfront before.  Just wish I had my camera with me!!!

Thursday evening dives are a regular thing in Plymouth too now, so give us a call if you fancy diving next week.  Meeting at 6pm at the dive centre.

Hope to see you all in the water soon.

Excellent vis in Plymouth :-)

With relatively settled weather over the past few weeks, even though it has been very cold the visibility in Plymouth at the moment has been really good.  Last week we saw 4-5m from the shore and divers at around 18m on the Elk were able to see the guys above on their safety stops.  The same was true this weekend as well, with 5m at Eastern Kings this morning and around 6m on the Mewstone this afternoon.

With the visibility improving all the time next weekend should be good.  So give us a call at the centre or check out the website for what's happening.  You can even view the schedule March too!!!

Hope to see you all in the water soon!

Improved viz ....

Posted by Jude in Untagged

The rumours are true!!!  Viz at Babbacombe last night was a good 2 - 3 metres.  Those of you who have dived this month will recognise this as a significant improvement and for those of you who haven't - come on, it's getting better!!

There was lots of life on the reef last night, a very large lobster, squat lobsters, tompots, gurnards and more.

Thursday Evening Dives

Posted by Jude in Untagged 

Jude

Despite the poor weather of late the Thursday evening dives are running as planned.  So far this year we've had pretty limited visibility above and below the surface and cooler than average temperatures but with the right preparation this shouldn't stop us from diving.

 We are finding the need to wear warmer clothes for the pre dive and post dive period  and whilst the temperature in the water is a little lower than usual for the time of year heavier thermals and gloves are allowing us to continue to dive.

 If you fancy a shore dive after work ring the centre to let them know.  We can arrange to transport cylinders and/or kit to the dive site for you if you can't get to the dive centre first.  A quick call will ensure that you know if conditions are suitable, where we're diving and at what time.
