Diving: Arfon arfoff :-)
17th June 2023
£75This one is a day trip to dive the wreck of the Arfon (40m) on Scimitar out of Portland Harbour – This is a 2 dive day so no coming back to port, the Arfon is a World War I wreck protected by Historic England as having historic significance. She was built in 1908 & struck a mine in 1917 sinking rapidly with the loss of 10 of her 13 man crew.
The Arfon is exceptionally well preserved with the trawler’s key features such as its mine-sweeping gear, deck gun, portholes and engine room still intact on the seabed off St Alban’s Head.
After a surface interval of about 90 mins we will have a second dive whose site is to be determined on the day cost is £75 and it’s ropes off at 08:45 with an approximate 2pm finish
