Dacorum Scuba has chartered the Jurassic Aqua Sports boat Waverider out of Portland on Sunday 14 May 2023 to dive the Elena R (28m) and a second later drift dive (details TBC).

This trip is suitable for Sports Diver and above. Ropes off is a very civilized 12.00 midday.

Sunk after hitting a mine in 1939 while carrying a cargo of wheat from Argentina to Antwerp, the Elena R today lies to the east of Portland Bill. Fairly well broken, it offers Sport Divers a chance to explore the distributed wreck for nooks and crannies containing conger and to find the two boilers of the Greek cargo ship.

See more details about the wreck.

The second dive will be a drift, details to be confirmed.

Waverider is a catamaran with a diver lift, Jurassic Aqua Sports is reached from Portland Marina Car Park, approximately 3 hours drive from Hemel Hempstead.

For more details of the trip or to join please contact John directly.
