Location description: Jersey has some superb reefs and walls combined with some very strong tidal streams to provide some of the most exhilarating drift diving in the UK.
Popular areas for drift diving are:
Rigdon Bank
A rise from 35 m to 10m over about 100 metres this very exposed pinnacle has some boulders the size of houses and a wide variety of flora and fauna. Dives on this site towards the end of the season may allow you to see large shoals of bass chasing the baitfish.
Noirmont
A rocky area with sand patches. This area can be dived in most conditions as it is in the lee of the main tidal streams.
Shamrock Bank
A rocky reef of about 20m located a short distance from Bonne Nuit. Lots of varied wildlife.
Scallop Drifts
For those of you with recreational scallop permits. We can put you on some good scallop ground anywhere around the island.
Jersey and the Channel Islands has a wide variety of wrecks. The Channel Isles were occupied during WWII by the Germans who used the Islands as a POW camp. Many of the Islands wrecks are a result of this period when the Germans used craft for supply and defence. There is some information on a number of wrecks that we dive on a regular basis detailed below.
Armed Trawler
The armed trawler whose name remains unknown as there were a number used as patrol vessels during the war. The wreck lies in about 17 - 25m just a couple of miles out from St Helier.
The remaining structure is totally opened up with bow fallen to port and stern fallen to starboard, winches, boiler and engine in-between. Numerous 20mm shells, cordite lengths and 25lb shells were removed and disposed in 1975. The boiler usually is the home to a large conger.
Schokland
A very popular wreck is the Schokland, a Dutch freighter which sank after hitting a reef in 1943 while under the command of the German forces. She now sits upright, 225 feet long, about a mile off Portelet Bay on the south of the island.
Depths to the deck vary from 20 to 30 metres, depending on the state of the tide and, like all of Jerseys wrecks, she must be dived at slack water. Every inch of the wreck is covered in marine life and a huge shoal of pouting hang like a thick silvery curtain over the open holds. The first two holds still contain the remains of their cargo ­sacks of cement and iron girders that are now home to some huge lobsters and conger eels.
Heron
The Heron is the wreck that was ``THE`` wreck of 2003. The Heron made a navigational error in 1961 and is reported to have struck Flat Rock on the Paternosters Reef. Until April 2003 the wrecks location remained a mystery.
This wreck lies in approx 25 - 30 metres of water and is located very close into the reef. The vessel lies upright and in a pristine condition. Some plating is missing on the port side with allows a good look into the hull. A feature of this wreck is the galley with a tiled floor that gleams white when the silt is pushed aside.
