Dobbin Wood on Ullswater, great wind surfing, fishing, kayaking, canoing and Scuba Diving.

A popular area for anglers where we meet John.
Easy launching of anything that uses paddles or peddles and where we meet a family from Poland, though you have some steps to walk down - so access points being important for water sports enthusiast, these are featured in the video allowing you to decide if you can manage them or not.
And beaches of fine pebbles where we meet Kwan, Ibraheem & Tanya who kindly invited me to stay with them to enjoy a barbeque.
Sadly i had to move on, to get this video ready for you all.
If wheelchair access is available we’ll try hard to show this as best we can, sorry i lost the footage of the close up of the 1 foot step here :-( which is at the third layby.
For Swimmers and Divers - once you are at knee to waist height, you are on the edge of a 35 degree slope down to 20 metres before it shelves off slowly into deeper water, bottoming out at 42 metres ‘usually’.
A treasure hunting ground for divers, after the tourists have been in :-) Did we mention great views of the lake too, below and above the waves :-)
3 laybys all within 200 metres of one another, all with ample parking and scenic views, over the lakes width & much of its length.

*Hello my friends, I'm your 5th Thumbs up. I'm on video 115 of 151 today Monday Oct 3 2022 at 11:23am. I think Wind surfing is one of the coolest things to watch. I wish I've experienced it when I was younger. LOL I like Kayaking too, but it's been years. Great Sharing as always my friend. 😀😀😀* Sharon in SC

Wow Sharon, thanks so much! Paul here. Yes, the average view time for each video has risen on the US geographic area! You are making an impact. 😘❤ Have started to riciprocate for you too. I think clicking the like button on other peoples kind comments helps too. So have started doing that for you in a more intense way now.💯👍
