About this spot

Stoney Cove is one of the United Kingdom's accessible dive destinations, open to divers throughout the year. The site has built a modest community of recreational divers who contribute field observations and video documentation of the underwater environment. With nine recorded species observations on file, the site offers opportunities to encounter UK marine life in its natural habitat. The cove attracts divers looking for a straightforward UK diving experience. Local divers have documented their visits through three community videos, which serve as practical references for planning a dive. These submissions give insight into what to expect and help new divers prepare for their visit. Stoney Cove operates outside a Marine Protected Area, meaning standard UK diving regulations apply. The site's year-round accessibility makes it a reliable option for divers fitting diving into their schedules during any season. Whether you're building experience or exploring UK diving, Stoney Cove provides a documented dive location with real diver feedback and species records.
