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) - SAINT ANDRE (PROBABLY) offers some of Cornwall & Devon's richest wreck diving. Water ranges 10-18°C, warmest July, August, September.
The *Saint Andre* (probably) is a fishing vessel that went down in 1969 after a collision, settling upright at 47m. It’s a proper dive for those comfortable with deeper wrecks and the colder waters off Cornwall. We’ve found the stern section often holds the most interest, with a surprising amount of detail still intact, considering its age and the strong local currents. Look for pollack hovering in the wheelhouse area and dogfish tucked into the sand nearby. The visibility can be a bit hit or miss, but on a good day, the wreck stands out clearly from the seabed, making for a very satisfying dive.
