About Darlington
A wreck dive. It goes down to 6 m. You get in from a boat. It suits Open Water divers and up, as a dive guide states it. The coast faces W: swell from the W reaches it, and wind from the E blows out to sea. No dive centre within 10 km, the nearest 15 km away. The sea is about 20°C in February, its coldest month (7 mm wetsuit and hood), and 29°C in August, its warmest (rash vest or 1 to 2 mm). For Advanced divers the best months are usually May, June, July and August, with about 7 good days in 7; in January, about 4. From the weather of past years. The town to stay in is Hamilton. Within 5 km we also list 1 dive site.

What you might see
Too few open records near this site to list its animals. Ask a dive centre what you are likely to see.
This week: visibility about 20 m, clearer than usual (satellite plankton reading, 24 Oct). Estimated from the month's typical visibility and this week's satellite chlorophyll against the site's normal; heavy rain before a dive can still muddy it.
The current and the life no free forecast gives. Ask a dive centre before you book.
