The Runnelstone.
One of the U.K's finest dive sites for more experienced divers. Situated 1 mile offshore with rocks rising up to just a few metres below the surface Runnelstone is the last resting place of many ships. Diving Runnelstone is akin to swimming through massive tower blocks with not a square inch of rock that isn't smothered in anemones of one kind or other. As you drift along it is not uncommon to come across anchors, boilers, propellers and other wreckage with the only drawback of the site being which direction to look in so as not to miss anything. Possibly our most popular requested dive site.
Drift or Slack, (not spring tides) 18-40m.

Outer Bucks.
Brilliant wall dive. Large rock faces covered in a blanket of Jewel anemones making them look like patchwork quilts of magnificent colour. Other inhabitants of the site include male cuckoo wrasse providing even more vivid colour to the surroundings. 18-40m drift.

Loguns Gully.
A baby Runnelstone. A steep sided gully just 1m wide at its narrowest with walls towering above you up to the surface from depths of 18m. The walls of the gully provide a home for thousands of Plumose, Jewel and Dahlia anemones, Cuttlefish are often encountered here.
Slack water dive, depths 18-21m.

Prussia Cove.
One of the prettiest coves in Cornwall both above and below the surface. Lots of gullies to explore with nooks and crannies providing refuge for Tompot Blennies, Squat Lobsters, Rocklings and much more. Other marine life you may encounter includes Squid, Cuttlefish, Dogfish as well as the usual wrasse and Pollack.
Easy site with no currents and depths of 6-14m.

Lamorna Cove.
Probably the most accessible of shore dives with car parking right at the water’s edge. This beautiful cove offers safe easy diving from the shore as well as being a useful base for boat trips to more distant sites. The cove has no currents though with a little groundsea the surge can add fun to moving around underwater. There are lots of fish to observe as well as Cuttlefish and Pipefish.
Depths of up to 20m. can be reached by venturing to the centre of the cove.

Low Lee Reef and the wreck of the Primrose.
Low Lee reef is situated about 1 mile offshore from Penzance and its position is marked by the Low Lee shipping buoy. The reef offers not only a fine display of marine life, with large shoals of Bib and some very inquisitive Cuckoo Wrasse, but also the wreck of The Primrose. She was a coal carrier which struck the reef and sank at the beginning of this century. Cannons have also been found on this site, their history is unclear but they are thought to be of 17th. century Belgian origin. Nature trails have been laid around the site and one of the mystery cannons can be found by following one of the trails.
This reef is a favourite with our regular divers offering an abundance of life difficult to surpass. Depth to 21m.

Hellopes.
This Schooner rigged steamship which sank in 1911 provides us with one of our deepest and most intact wrecks. Heading forward from the easily recognisable stern with its massive propeller you will find row upon row of Seafans leading you to the two huge boilers.
With depth restricting dive time you will want to return to this wreck time and time again.
Hellopes can be dived at all states of the tide. Depths 34-38m.

Lincoln.
One of the early steam/sailing ships, The Lincoln, which sank in 1865, was yet another victim of the Runnelstone. This 3 masted Schooner with its stern engine now makes for a lovely dive site with the bow section lying on a spectacular reef of deep gullies and walls.
Curious Cuckoo wrasse are often encountered and many Seafans can be found on this wreck. Depths vary between 34m at the stern to 18m on top of the reef. Slack dive.

Alice Marie.
A victim of the Runnelstone this French steel barque finally came to rest in Mounts Bay in 1908.
Surrounded by sand this wreck has become the home of a wide variety of marine life. Plumose anemones now inhabit the ribs of the wreck, some good photo opportunities here. Lobsters and congers can often be seen hiding under the platework.
Can be dived at all states of the tide with depths varying between 23-27m.

The Conqueror.
A modern Freezer Trawler which ran aground on Boxing Day 1977 with a cargo of frozen Mackerel.
The Conqueror now provides us with our most intact shallow wreck, a popular site for all experience levels with plenty of wreckage to explore. Although this is quite a new wreck it has already become the home of many marine organisms. Jewel anemones and Red fingers are amongst the many forms of life that can be seen here.
Depths 10-22m.

Sennen Cove & the wreck of the "Beaumaris".
Just the place for anyone who fancies an energetic shore dive. The main car park steps lead down to the beach and the remains of the "Beaumaris" can be found 300/400 metres from the shore. The wreckage consists of the double bottoms of the ship (10 metres wide) to the west, crank and propeller shaft to the east leading to the upright stern-post. There are scattered plates, sometimes covered with sand, on the shoreward side, whilst to the north amongst the kelp there are more plates and portholes, if you are lucky!
Depths 10 - 12 metres to the west, gradually sloping up to 6-7 metres at the stern-post at high water.

Seghy Rock.
Seghy is a small rocky island just to the west of "Castle Treveen Point" near Porthcurno, its variety of depths and features means it provides interest to divers of all experience levels.
At the south east point one can descend a vertical face to about 25 metres, less experienced divers can start at the north end where there is a wide sandy area at about 15 metres with rock faces and boulders to be explored only a few metres away.
On the east side of the rock many of the faces are vertical which means that there is very little kelp to inhibit ones exploration, jewel anemones thrive here with some real monsters in only a few metres of water. At the deeper, south eastern end there are various 'swim-thru' opportunities between and under large boulders.
Seghy is diveable on most states of the tide though better whilst rising with various depths to 30 metres.

The Mystique and "Mystique Reef"
The wreck is that of a small fishing vessel, 65ft. in length, which sank after striking the "Outer Bucks" rock near Lamorna Cove. Having only foundered a couple of years ago (no loss of life) the wreck is virtually intact lying in about 35 metres. She hasn't yet been colonised by marine life so if that's your preference simply heading north for about 20-30 metres brings you to the start of a reef which climbs to within 7-8 metres of the surface. To the west side of this reef there are many gullies and crevices absolutely full of life and makes an excellent 'multilevel' dive.
The wreck needs slack water but the reef can be enjoyed at any state of the tide. Warning - still nets onboard, great care needed.

The Mulberry Dock.
This is a relic of the second world war, originally designed to aid the landing of allied machinery on the beaches of France. This one can be found a couple of miles off Lamorna Cove. The "Mulberry" is basically a large steel tank, filled with concrete, now forming an artificial reef in its last resting place. At 70 metres long and both 17 metres high and wide, covered in soft corals and anemones it forms a breathtaking sight. Depth range approx. 35 metres to the top, 50 ish to the bottom, depending on tide.
Needs slack water and good visibility.
