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) - Mewstone Plymouth offers some of Cornwall & Devon's richest diving. Water ranges 10-18°C, warmest July, August, September.
The Mewstone, just off Plymouth, offers a solid shore dive experience. We often find dogfish tucked into the sandy patches and plenty of crabs scuttling over the rocks. It’s a good option for newer divers or those looking for an easy second dive, especially when the weather keeps you close to shore.
