Portland is one of the most
popular south coast diving destinations in the UK. The 18 mile Chesil
Beach can offer excellent shore diving with scenic dives and shallow
wrecks all within swimming distance.
There are a number of dive
boats operating out of Castletown, providing shuttles, day charters,
harbour and offshore wrecks, drift and night dive sites, all at varying
depths. Air and Nitrox fills are available at Portland Oceaneering.
Protected
by the harbour walls against even the strongest winds, Portland Harbour,
with its sheltered wreck sites, can still be dived when gales prevent
offshore diving.
