A dive around Asparagus Island on the the Lizard, Cornwall. There is a tunnel which runs from the beach side of the island to the seaward side, the aim of the dive was to explore this and another known tunnel close to it.

On entering the water I was greeted with crystal clear water, swimming a short way towards the tunnel the entrance was very obvious, the sand drops away in a bowl and the large cave is clearly visible. The shape of the walls and roof of the cave are amazing, sculptured grey rock flowing in smooth curves. After a short swim the ever increasing brightness of the exit at the other end comes into sight. It is here in these transitional zones where i think the site is at its most beautiful.

A short swim round the left hand corner brings you to another short tunnel, this time it is a one way trip as it only has one entrance. I again paused to take in the shimmering light of the surface half in and half out of the entrance.

I was very fortunate on my back under Asparagus Island to come across a hiding seal, the dive would have been amazing without this encounter but this truly topped it off.

Dived two hours before low water at Newlyn, maximum depth 5m (perfect for oxygen rebreather).
