Underwater Attractions and Site Facilities

In addition to the map info above there is now a platform at 4.5m a lower platform to come, a caravan which is in the water but not fully sunk yet. The map will be updated un due course. Temporary Portaloo at the moment but there is a building with showers and toilet which is just waiting to be plumbed in. Changing rooms and a heated clubhouse. This is a new site and there is a huge investment to develop the site during 2019. Each month it should change for the better. No gas fills available as yet.

Underwater conditions

There is a short waist level area then it drops straight down to about 34m. This site is not suitable for Open Water Divers unless they are near the end of their Advanced Open Water Diver Course - ONLY if visability conditions are suitable. St Andrews is a chalk based lake and does get kicked up very easily. We highly recommend only divers with Advanced Open Water and Deep training (or equivalent) or above dive at this site.
