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) - JENNY offers some of Cornwall & Devon's richest wreck diving. Water ranges 10-18°C, warmest July, August, September.
The Jenny, a 16.2-meter fishing vessel, rests upright at 31 meters, making it a good target for divers with a bit of experience. She met her end in 1979, abandoned on fire before sinking at anchor. We’ve found the wreck itself is reasonably intact, offering plenty to poke around in, especially the wheelhouse area. Expect to see plenty of pollack hovering above the superstructure and conger eels tucked into the deeper recesses. It's a solid dive, particularly if you’re into the history of these working boats, and a reliable spot when the conditions are good.
