Weybourne - Sunny July 05


When the the sand is out and the sea is calm its hard to better the gentle diving off the beach at Weybourne. All we could have asked for was slightly better vis but it was warm and bright and so neap there was about 3 hours of slack.

We were able to tempt Josie, our Seasearch course tutor out with us so we got more of our course done and met up with more friendly members of North Norfolk Divers.
