Capernwray Dive Site
Our favorite training site, Capernwray (aka, Jackdaw Quarry) sits on the edge of the Lake District.
Featuring diving depths up to 20 metres, the quarry boasts many fine features including:
- Good (usually) visability and the 2nd cleanest recreational bathing water in the UK.
- Finest stock of fish in any freshwater site. These include Roach & Perch in large shoals, not forgetting the very friendly trout. The most popular feature is the Sturgeon which range from 30cm long right through to a 160cm monster.
- Purpose designed training platforms at depths from 2m to 12m.
- Jetty to practice deep water entries and exits.
