Why dive here
With 176+ marine species recorded in the area - including blue sharks, dolphins, dwarf minke whales, humpback whales and ocean sunfish (mola mola) - Arena Swimming Pool offers some of Cornwall & Devon's richest diving. Water ranges 10-18°C, warmest July, August, September.
Alright, the Arena Swimming Pool. Let's be real, you're not coming here for pelagics or pristine reefs. This is a pool, 4 metres deep, pure and simple. It's a fantastic spot for getting comfortable in the water, maybe testing new gear or practicing skills like fin pivots and mask clearing without any distraction. We've used it ourselves for a quick buoyancy tune-up after a long break. If you're looking to shake off the rust or introduce someone to diving in a controlled, warm environment, then this is actually a decent choice. Just don't expect to log any exotic creature sightings.
