Mewstone East
★★★★☆
(159)
10 minutes from Plymouth Breakwater by RIB, lies the Mewstone - a distinct mountain-shaped rock that shelves down to the seabed. This means the area has hardly any silt compared with the rest of the local area, leading to excellent visibility. During spring tides you can often get a strong drift in this area.
A hotspot for dogfish. The rock formation creates small underwater canyons which are home to a lot of sea life, making this a great place for taking photos
