Other comments: One of the best Wall dives in the UK. A sizable ground swell picks up over the reef in all but the calmest conditions so the weather must be right to dive here. It is a remarkable dive with a great wall and the possibility of seeing big fish. If you have a camera take it...

Dive report : Graeme R I/8/05 My buddy and I were the only divers in the second wave, and had the site to ourselves. A 2 minute swim took us to the top of the wall - absolutely awesome. We hovered just off the top over a huge black drop, by an big overhanging roof. There was no current and we dropped straight down the vertical wall, stopping at 30m. The viz was easily 20m, possibly 25m or more. The wall just went on into the distance to the north in a series of ridges and corners, covered with sponges and dead men's fingers. Apart from around 20 lion's mane jellyfish, there wasn't a lot of fish life, but I was so awestruck by the scenery and viz I hardly noticed. I won't bore you with hyperbole, but suffice to say this was an amazing dive, certainly the best green water dive I have done, and probably the best overall. No time for a second dive, but anything else probably would have been an anticlimax anyway.
Dive report : John Nicolson Dived here on the Eastwood divers Rib and its true, Its the best wall dive. Unfortunately we went deep and did not get as good a run time as the others. You cant hang about at 10m as the swell is dangerous. We opted to swim away from the wall to make it easier for the boat handler. The wall is just covered in colour and did not recognise most of the stuff I saw.
