Dive boat charter from St.Mary's in the UK's equivalent of the Red SeaAlthough weather and
tide dependant there is a massive choice of dive sites for you to
visit. Ranging from massive steamships, gullies full of gigantic
cannon, reefs pulsing with micro-marine life (bring your powerful
torches) remains of recent wreck engulfed in fauna, and ever inquisitive
playful seals.
The Isles of Scilly are located 28 miles off Lands Ends, Cornwall the most south westerly point of England and because of the geographical location of the islands and the nearby gulf-stream the surrounding sea water is extremely rich in marine nutrients. The islands are known for there crystal clear underwater visibility which provides an outstanding memorable experience for divers. The outer reef walls emerge from incredible depths creating the most fascinating underwater landscapes, stunning gigantic underwater rock formations and reef walls of thriving marine life covered in colourful fauna, rare Sponges, Cup corals and reefs with Football sea squirts and protected Sea fans. Marine biologists and enthusiastic underwater photographers visit these isolated tranquil islands several times a year to look for and record more rare species. These beautiful Islands have got to be one of the best places to dive around the British Isles. If your 'e considering a diving holiday UK style then I thoroughly recommend putting Scillies on your must do dive list for the best scuba diving experience you can have. The Islands are also
well known for there numerous treasure shipwrecks, protected historic
ship wrecks, steamships and modern shipwrecks that in times gone-by
have struck the rugged rocks of the islands with devastating consequences. The Islands `St.Agne's`
Set
in idyllic surroundings, there is so much to see and do once the
diving is over. Additional
trips to the off islands can be arranged for barbeques, for food
and to sample the various pubs and tea houses, picturesque evening
strolls or even a relaxing wreck fishing trip.
Are you looking a boat trip with a difference? Then why not try an Island Explorer group boat trip. Have you ever wanted to get a glimpse of one of the islands famous grey seals in their natural environment? Join Dave your skipper, guide and well known local diver and marine wild life photographer for an exciting trip of exploration aboard Tiburon. Each cruise begins with a friendly introduction and safety briefing, before leaving St.Mary's harbour. The chosen route will depend on the sea conditions of the day. Wherever you go your skipper will choose the most gorgeous, scenic, photographic locations and route available, along the way he will point out things of interest and even tell you the names of his favourite grey seals. A private family treat or special occasion can be arranged with a tour around the islands stopping off for lunch, tea or even a swim with seals, have the boat to yourselves (with skipper) and go where you would like. This can incorporate
a trip to the Bishop Rock Light House and then landing on St.Agnes
for collection later if you desire. A trip out to indulge yourselves
watching the seals, bring your wetsuits and swim in a sheltered
secluded spot the possibilities are endless.
