Diver's Notes

I heard this was an unusual dive. A bit of litter and scrap but Brits love wrecks and sunken things and the reefs in the UK are not that brilliant :)

Anyway I had to do it as part of my training - and I'm glad I did. It is fascinating.

Done as a drift into Electric station, the first thing I was shown was an unexploded landmine at about 12m, then continuing with the reef on the left we saw the first of the vehicles. There are over 20 Bren gun carriers and some trucks and trailers. I got some awesome photos. After you leave the vehicles and turn the corner into Electric Station the reef and wildlife get better. Thoroughly recommend the dive either as a first and new experience or for anybody interested in sunken things or military history.
