What a glorious day for a trip to Swanage to dive on the Valentine Tanks and the Fleur de Lys from the comfortable Divers Down cat.

The Divers Down hardboat is booked out of Swanage for Saturday 28th October, cameras and kit ready, and everyone is keeping fingers crossed for fine weather to allow us out from their base on the picturesque pier to two of Swanage’s lovely dive sites.

A lovely evening with three try divers at a pool session on 12th October – all progressing swiftly through some buoyancy skills and generally appearing to enjoy their underwater experience. Time afterwards for a social pint at the Mill Tavern.

A beautifully sunny October day for a gentle dive under the pier at Swanage, water still a balmy 16oC, and plenty of fish and crabs to see around the pier legs.
