I distinctly remember feeling warm on the dive \u2013 a feeling I could definitely get used to! (that being said I did still have two wetsuits and thermal on). The very steep beach bed meant you could get to a depth of around 12m not too far off from the coast. Lots of marine life from jellyfish, spider crabs and colourful wrasse were spotted, and Simon was even able to find a hermit crab! I\u2019m told there was a sewage pipe but it discharges at least a kilometre from shore though we did find a long pipe and what looked suspiciously like half a toilet plunger!<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately, there were no nearby changing rooms (there were nearby toilets though) and the car park was a short 2 minute walk away but with the lovely weather it was fine changing out in the open. The return journey was pleasant with everyone having got in some nice dives, and we left around 4pm and got back to Bristol around 7pm.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A group of four left for Chesil on Sunday 30th June bright and early, leaving at 7:30am and arriving at around 10:30 am.
