Options are weekends where available, the more popular choice are weekdays. Midweek diving at Capernwray is bliss! The water is clear, the site is quiet and the are no queues in the cafe at lunchtime!

Capernwray, (Jackdaw Quarry, Capernwray Rd, Carnforth LA6 1AD), is a beautiful fresh water quarry, nestled in the countryside near Carnforth, Lancashire. The site is easily accessible from Junction 35 of the M6, on the edge of the Lake district, close to beautiful villages, the famous seaside resort of Morecambe, and not far from the historic city of Lancaster.
We often refer to the site as an Underwater Theme Park. It has so many interesting attractions for divers to see, adding to the fun and excitement of their dive courses. Don’t be surprised to see Thunderbirds 4, a couple of horses, aeroplanes, boats and a large variety of novel items placed here and there. The water is home to an abundance of marine life too, with large friendly sterlets and sturgeon frequenting the training platforms to the amusement of divers. Recent additions to the quarry were some playful Koi Carp that can be seen chasing each other around in the shallows. Here’s an example from our Facebook Albums for pictures of the site.
