Decent spots east of Plymouth

[Gaz D]

Hello all,

I'm new to this site so will be interested to see what my question throws up (I've already posted a similar thread in the Devon section, but have added a couple more questions to this Cornish thread. Apologies for clogging up the airwaves)

I'm down in the Plymouth area next week and I'm wondering if anybody knows some decent spearfishing spots around there. I'll be based in Cawsands, just over the border in Cornwall, so looking at the map I will probably go out exploring that part of the bay, up to Penlee Point, around to Rame head, and maybe even around to Whitsands. I'm also interested in the other side of Plymouth Sound, around Jenny Cliff, to Heybrook bay.

I'll be entering from the shore (no boat, but I do have a kayak) and don't really want to go much deeper than 10 meters.

If anyone can suggest some decent spots that I can jump straight into, I'd really appreciate it - otherwise I guess I'm gonna spend most of is part of my holiday swimming around!

After this I'm heading deeper into Cornwall for a week (location as yet undecided): is there any kind of consensus as to the best spearfishing areas in that part of the world? I've never been that far down, so would love some advice (I wish someone would write a UK guide!)

Many thanks,

Gaz D
