The large tidal ranges in and around Jersey produce opportunities for incredible drift dives. Typically on drift dives, you will have the chance to see a variety of colourful sponges, starfish, rays, dogfish, pollack, sea hares and wrasse. Dive sites are accessed by boat and depths vary from 10-30 meters depending on site and tide state.

Beautiful offshore islands north coast of Jersey with many different sites, certainly our most popular trip!

You will have a chance to see resident seals and possibly dolphins, colourful sponges, lobsters, crabs, cat shark, sea cucumbers, fan coral, nudibranches, mermaid purses and more. We dive several areas here, the favourites are: Wills Lagoon, a shallow area with lots of life. And Grand Nior, a pinnacle dive with encrusted rock faces and kelp beds.

Sark day trip 30m

Sark is one of the smallest of the Channel Islands, it is a 45min boat ride from Bouley Bay. Sark has steeper topography and different water movement than Jersey even though they are so close together. The marine life is different with an abundance of nudies, urchins, starfish, and corals.

We dive 2 sites during the day, L’ tac wall at around 30m and then the shallow Gouliot cave. There is some time to look around on Sark too.
