How deep's the deep end???

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Cool Diving New Zealand : One Thread

Hi there

While searching the web I found some great photos of some keen people diving from high cliffs, maybe 20 metres high. How deep would the water have to be to attempt a dive like that? How deep is the 'deep end' normally for a 10m platform?

Thanks

Usually you want a depth of about 5M as is the case in Wellington and most other high-level facilities. However, you can get away with, say, 4.5M without too much trouble.
