South Coast 23rd-31st May 2008

[Paul Buckley]

I am going to be on the South Coast between 23rd-31st May, as I am doing one of Martin Edge's One to one tuition courses in Bournemouth on the 27th.
Does anyone have any recommendations as to some good shore dives for a fellow U/W photographer, I am quite flexible as to where (as long as there is access & parking for a large motorhome, we can just to say manage the road down to Babbacombe Bay) or if anyone is interested in meeting up for a dive that would be good "but I must warn you that I usually dive solo".

Swanage Pier without doubt, it's about 45 minutes from Bournemouth (not in peak hours!)

Would love to have met up but I'm away in the Philipines then... Na sorry, cna't manage a sad face for that

Hope you have a good time with Martin

Thanks for that Tazzie,

Will probably start at Swanage pier (whats it like for parking with a large motorhome), then maybe end up at Babbacombe Bay, Any other recommendations from anyone?
We are also taking a Zodiac inflatable, but not sure if we will get chance to use it down there with not knowing the area, might try exploring a bit around babbacombe bay with it.

I dived swanage today and despite everything it was a lovely dive. Worth a trip to the kyarra if your in swanage. If your going to go to babbacombe just aswell stop off at portland to.
