The wind might be setting in for the weekend, but after a stunning 10-day streak and a perfect summer so far, we really cannot complain too much as a bit of breeze was long overdue!

We have had an absolute blast over the last week and a half. It was brilliant catching up with some of our most regular club members over the weekend for both recreational and technical diving. Earlier in the week, we were joined by a military dive club for a few days of fantastic fun diving. We also had the pleasure of welcoming our close Belgian friends from Delphinus Club for an epic 5-day Best of the South West trip🤩

We have visited nearly every recreational site in Plymouth over the last 10 days, and the conditions have been top tier. Visibility has consistently averaged around 8 meters all summer, and earlier this week an astonishing 15 meters vis was reported on the Persier!

A massive thank you to everyone who has dived with us recently, whether you traveled from just down the road, across Britain, or crossed borders to join the fun🤿

Another cracking weekend out on the water here in Plymouth! ☀️

From clear waters and beaming sunshine to a huge array of marine life spotted across the reefs and wrecks, the conditions could not have been better! We had an absolute blast catching up with some of our regular returning clubs and meeting plenty of new faces across the boats. The atmosphere was top-notch all weekend. 🤩

The marine life sightings were next level! At the surface, we were treated to incredible encounters with Minke whales, Risso's dolphins, and common dolphins. Underwater, the wildlife was out in full force, divers spotted blue sharks (Sundays Blue shark snorkelling trip), rays, catsharks, cuttlefish, octopus, and massive conger eels lurking in the wrecks, plus so much more! 🐋🐬🦈🐙

Just under an hour long dive on the WW2 liberty ship, James Eagan Layne in 20 metres. 3mm shorty, 19 degrees Celsius water temp, no problem for Rich from the Portsmouth uni clan. 😂

Portsmouth university divers jumping in to dive the wreck of the Oregon in 35 metres of water. Incredible conditions topside today and already had a pod of Risso dolphins on the surface! 🐬 🚢

Spot of the week: Minke Whale🐋

Today while out on a blue shark snorkelling trip, during the silence of drifting in the tide we heard a loud blow and all of our attention was focused on finding the source of the sound. In the distance we then spotted this minke whale who stuck around for about 5 minutes showing of several blows before diving down🤩
