There is also some fish life including zebra gobies and dogfish. The Kyarra is reached from Swanage and must be dived during slack, one hour before and six hours after Dover high water. £259.95 for the weekend 30 metre max So you need to be an Advanced Diver to enjoy this weekend plus you will need to own and know how to use a DSMB - see our DSMB course, along with a Knife and ideally some UK diving experience. |
