Did anyone here dive the southcoast yesterday? (Sun 7/12/3)
I was meant to be diving out of Shoreham (few miles West of Brighton), but the skipper blew us out sighting force 8 gales. Was nothing more than a force 3 at 9am
Anyway, having failed to find an alternative coast dive boat we trecked off to the NDC. Was a bit nippy, 9C in the water, but 4C in the carpark. Wasn't too impressed with NDC to be honest. It's a good setup and they need time to complete etc, and I know it's a good place for depth training, but saw diddly except a few gnomes, a small boat, and one titchy fish. A bit dead really.
Still, better than being blown out completely
