Snorkeling and Scuba Diving at High Point North
The bottom of the sea are lined with very large boulders, which give home to the Lobsters. Depths are around 15 m and care must be taken with fishing line, as the fishermen use this area often. In 1996 a 14lb Lobster was seen by the Fishguard Diving Club. It was 5 feet long.
A nice area to explore, tides are weak under the cliffs. The second small bay around from Martins Haven, heading east, there are some interesting gullies and small caves under the kelp at 8 meters. The area drops down to 20m, with a ridge running down from the bay seaward. The area of sand has a small Scallop bed.
The area is protected, as it is in the Skomer reserve, and must not be touched. We have seen Sun Fish swimming along this point, and while I was watching them swim past the boat, they spotted the divers bubbles, diverted their path to decent down the bubbles! When the divers came up they said they saw two fins swim past them!! Here you will also get the chance of seeing octopus at about 15 metres.
St Brides Bay. By boat. Use GPS to find High Point then dive the wall.
