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) - Roskilly offers some of Cornwall & Devon's richest diving. Water ranges 10-18°C, warmest July, August, September.
Roskilly is a shore dive in Cornwall, a good spot for a relaxed explore. You’ll find some colourful soft corals and a surprising number of wrasse darting through the kelp. It’s a good choice for newer divers looking to get comfortable with UK shore diving, or for a second, easy dive of the day. We’ve found the entry can be a bit rocky, so take your time.
