Local clock times; heights about mean sea level. On open coasts the times are usually within a quarter of an hour; in bays, estuaries and on the Gulf of Mexico they can be an hour or more out. Slack water, the safest time to dive where there is current, is about half an hour either side of each high and low.

About SS Rose Castle

A wreck dive. It goes down to 48 m. You get in from a boat. It suits experienced divers only, as a dive guide states it. The coast faces S: swell from the S reaches it, and wind from the N blows out to sea. No dive centre within 50 km on the map: book a liveaboard or a boat from further off. The sea is about 0°C in March, its coldest month (drysuit), and 15°C in August, its warmest (7 mm semi-dry or a drysuit). The town to stay in is Wabana. Within 5 km we also list 3 dive sites.

  • What it is Wreck.
  • How deep Down to 48 m: technical diving, past the 40 m recreational limit.
  • Getting in From a boat.
  • Who it suits Suits experienced divers only, as a dive guide states it.
  • Dive centres No dive centre within 50 km on the map: book a liveaboard or a boat from further off.

Water about 7°C: drysuit. Typical sea temperature for the time of year, not a forecast.

Visibility about 10 m. Typical for the time of year, estimated from ten years of NASA satellite water clarity, not a forecast. Clearest in Jan and Jul (about 15 m).

The score is the conditions only: the journey, the price and the partners never change it (how we score, how we earn).
