Wraysbury Lake

Wraysbury Lake is a well-established inland dive site in Berkshire near Staines, one of London's primary freshwater diving venues. The flooded gravel pit provides year-round diving in a sheltered environment. Sunken attractions including boats and a famous double-decker London bus create interest at various depths. The lake supports populations of pike, perch, and tench. Visibility varies considerably with weather and season but can be adequate for training. The advanced rating reflects challenging low-visibility conditions that test navigation skills. Wraysbury Lake's unbeatable location for London divers — minutes from Heathrow — ensures it remains one of the busiest inland dive sites in the country throughout the year.
