Exciting Encounters in Devon
The diving in Bigbury Bay started normally enough with a dive on the Persier wreck. For the second dive we decided on a shallow dive in the gullies behind Burgh Island. The wild life was amazing with masked, edible spider and swimming crabs, dog fish, various wrasse and cuttlefish. However the best was meeting a trigger fish. An unusual fish for British waters.

Devon Weekend
Challaborough proved a bit of a challenge on Saturday with surf on the beach but we still managed to launch the boat with Tai's help. Dived the Persier but found we couldn't return to the beach for lunch so went to Mount Batten instead. On Sunday we used Mount Batten slip and dived Scylla, James Eagan Lane and the breakwater where we found the boiler of Yvonne and lots of life in all the nooks and crannies.
