Fairylands

A superb reef type dive site similar to hilsea point but with better currents and a little less dramatic topography. This site takes it's name from the fairy ring that can be seen on the hill side in late July, early August

Max Depth: Anything from 12m-22m depending on where you drop and what you want.

Viz: Generally 6 - 8m, at best 20m+ although bad weather will make it worse.

None, please use a shot for descent and a Delayed SMB for the ascent. With some boat traffic Delayed SMBs per diver are essential.

Areas of interest
