Sea caves on Sark

[Lurker]

Anyone here been into any of the sea caves on Sark? I'll be there in a couple of weeks and only just realised how many it has.

It looks like there are sea kayak/coasteering guided trips that include caves but I'd love to hear of recommendations for anything accessible to cavers without a guide.

look out for the sliver lead mines

Are they very narrow?

Very little accesable in Sark's Hope mine. Engine Shaft is blocked about 30m down and none of the adits go.

Update in case it's useful for anyone in the future. We found long enough sea caves to get out of daylight on Derrible Beach and Dixcart Beach. Dozens more accessible if you go on a kayaking trip. Seems like the most extensive ones are Guliot Caves and Boutique Caves, but we didn't have time to get to either of those (I think you need low spring tides for foot access to Guliot, at least).

Sark is amazing btw, highly recommended!
