Weymouth Recomendations

Hi all

Being based up in the North west the south coast has n't really featured much on my dive agenda for the last few years.

However, this year may be different and I'm looking for a few recomendations from you guys down there in relataion to hard boat charters running out of weymouth for a weekend. My particular preference would wrecks in the 25 - 60m for both oc and cc divers.

cheers

Grrr

The Weymouth Dive Boat

TANGO of Weymouth

The Weymouth Charter Boat Outrage operates as a Diving and Angling boat all year round, for the best bank, reef, wreck and bass fishing that the south west can offer.

Can't find a website for Woody but there's this site :-

Just wondering if you're based in the NW have you considered diving further west out of Plymouth? Generally much better viz than weymouth, and should be about the same journey time for you.

I'd have to agree in part. I do both of these trips fairly regularly and I'd rather do the journey to Plymouth than Weymouth, its quicker and easier

It's been fluctuating with the weather, when it stops being windy we're getting about 6m... we had about 6-8m on the mewstone last week, then only 2-3m after a mini storm blew through.
