Future Work For The site


It has taken a fair amount of time to compile, write and verify the dive guides we've written so far but we’re not stopping there. As as on-going project we hope to be adding to the detailed guides already available on the site, but all coming from within the boundaries of Torbay Harbour as defined by the admiralty charts. This covers an area between Watcombe Head in the north, and Sharkham Point in the south.

Between these two points there is over 18 miles of coastline to explore with a varied array of marine habitats and levels of challenge to get to & to dive. The following list are some of the areas we’ve identified to give you guides to, and if you’ve heard about an other’s you’d like us to investigate for you just let us know!

From north to south:
- Watcombe Sea Caves (work in progress 24/10/2008)
- Petit Tor Point (added 10/01/2008)
- Long Quarry
- Ore Stone
- The Sunker
- Thatcher’s Rock
- Seagull Rock
- Queen Rock
- King Rock
- South Western Morris Rogue
- The Magwintons (added 09/05/2008)
- Beacon Cove (added 31/08/2007)
- Livermead
- Paignton Harbour (added 14/08/2008)
- The Ridge (added 19/09/2007)
- Fishcombe (added 12/11/2008)
- Brixham Breakwater (added 24/07/2008)
- Shoalstone (added 31/08/2007)
- Berry Head Quarry
- Southern Berry Head
- Cod Rock/The Bastards
- Durl Head (added 15/10/2007)
- Mudstone Ledge (work in progress 24/10/2008)

This is not an exhaustive list, but should keep us busy for a while. Progress may be slow, but hopefully you will appreciate the guides when they do come out.

Once we get to know an area we will be completing Sea Search observer forms for each site to help their efforts in identifying habitats for some of our rarer marine organisms.

There is one obvious exclusion from the above list… the wrecks! Once we are working our way through this list there may be time (and money!) to start writing guides to some of the wrecks, these are not our priority at the moment. We will concentrate on the more accesible sites at first, then progress onto the more challenging dive sites.
