Vobster Quay is a 36 acre lake situated in Somerset, about half hours drive from Bristol. The depth ranges from 6m down to 36m which makes it ideal for the novice diver and the more experienced diver alike.
There are many underwater attractions to search for including a 42ft motor cruiser, a wreck of a large aircraft, many old quarry buildings and a tunnel going from 14m down to 20m, not for the faint hearted!
The temperature can be as low as 4 degrees in the winter months and rises to a ‘tropical’ 18 degrees in the height of summer. Like most inland dive sites the water visibility is better during the winter as there are less divers about and you don’t get any algae bloom.
There is now a large community of rainbow trout living in Vobster Quay and they tend to congregate around the entry and exit points where they usually find an easy meal handed out by the divers.
Vobster Quay has some good out of water facilities with air to 300 bar and nitrox fills readily available. There is also a catering van serving up burgers and bacon butties for you pre and post dive nourishment.
