About Lyme Bay Dived Scallops Limited
Our Story
We are a team of four local divers; James, Ali, Mark and Will.
Based in Lyme Regis harbour, we dive off Grey Mist; a 26-foot Cygnus Cyclone which has been moored here for the last 15 years.
Our dive grounds run within a 60 square mile area in Lyme Bay which has had a dredging ban since 2008, allowing the marine life to thrive.
Our scallop season runs year-round but is dependent on the glorious (yet temperamental) English weather.
We hand pick our scallops at a depth between 25 and 35 meters, using twin set tanks filled with a Nitrox blend best suited to the depth.
Sustainability
Unlike other methods of fishing for scallops we have no bi-catch and do not harm any other sea life or cause damage to the seabed.
By only hand selecting large mature scallops this ensures that they have had time to reproduce allowing future generations of scallops to thrive.
We specifically plot on the charts where each dive has taken place and then leave that area for several years to replenish.
Top Quality Produce
Our scallops are caught and taken to our own scallop processing unit the same day, where they are cleaned and then taken to the restaurants and fishmongers we supply.
We pride ourselves on the freshness and high quality of our scallops and all of our customers agree.
