June 2011
Diving continues, the plankton bloom has come and now looks like it may be going. Dived the Far Mulberry a few times with vis down to 1m in places. This year we are seeing a lot more Dogfish / Catshark, Star fish and Nudibranch's than I can ever remember.
Four of us divded under Selsey lifeboat station last night. Taking in the old lifeboat station as well as the new one, eighty minutes of fun, Cuttlefish, Greater Pipefish, Nudibranchs and Spider Crabs.
A new website is crawling into existance for our diving centre project - see the links section below.
