2013-07-20 - The Citrine, Cadgwith, Cornwall, United Kingdom

25m - 50 min - Dived with Jason from Porthkerris Divers

The Citrine was a Steamer that sunk in 1931, running aground in thick fog. Boilers, engine, anchors, propeller, spare propeller, rudder. All in slightly strange places but all there. In the bow there were anchor chains .Close by the anchors there were winches. There were dog fish and very large sea hares

We dived the Citrine again which was excellent as after discussing the wreck after the first visit. We were able to see the bits we didn’t see the first time!

2013-07-22 - Porthkerris Beach, Porthkerris, Cornwall, United Kingdom

12m - 58 min - Dived with Steve from Porthkerris Divers

Access from the beach walking backwards. Loads of people canooing so had to be careful. Shallow dive to 12 metres. Sandy bottom with some kelp nearer the rocks. Pretty good visibility as the weather was great. Grey Seals playing by the rocks at the head of the bay were amazing, but there was a pretty strong surge so couldn't get too close Surface interval we had lunch on the beach
