Sounds nice. I've wanted to give Thurlestone a go for a while. Mind if I tag along too?

Open to all comers, let us know what time to meet, suggest Taunton Deane services. We do need to get air as we used cylinders last Sunday.

On Saturday high tides will be around 4.30pm (Plymouth has 16.25 and Salcombe 16.42) with low around 10-11am.

Not having dived here I don't know how significant the tide is for entry/exit etc.

Tides not too much a problem at Thurlestone, Get there for say 11.30am, which gives me a chance to fill me cylinders.
Nice sandy beach, next too a golf course.

We used the carpark on the right when the road does a sharp left. This is a bit further out from the village than the golf club one. Unloaded the car down the track by the steps and then took it back to the carpark. Very helpful attendant pointed out the wreck and then we met three guys from Worcester who arrived at the same time as we did. As we were early I agreed to dive with them so we went in as two pairs (do you think that was a bit forward for a first date??). Found the wreck easily and had nearly an hour pootling around in nice vis on a wreck with more features still there than I'd expected on what is clearly a very exposed shore.

Assumed we'd find you when I got out but no sign. Considered going round to the other car park but after getting the gear down and back meant I had no intention of repeating the exercise that day!

Jenny had a snorkel around and Jan relaxed in the sun. Ice cream in Salcombe finished the day nicely.
