Written by expert diver, Patrick Shier, every entry has a substantial description, plus pictures, maps and useful information such as how to access each site. All dives featured in the book are above 18 metres, which makes the information suitable for novices as well as advanced technical divers. As a tool for getting the best out of your UK-based diving, it takes some beating.
