Scotland - Back


Here are some of my images of the colourful marine life to be seen in Scottish waters. My favourite dive site is the South Ferry Slip at Kylesku. Entry to the water is easy, there are interesting car wrecks to see and a seabed that varies from rock to gravel to sand and then on the seaward side is a wall extending for 2-300 metres and reaching from 10 metres down to 34 metres. It is covered in encrusting life. An experienced diver can enter the water under the road bridge to the west and then drift on a flooding tide to exit at the ferry slip.

The Summer Isles

This tinyarchipelago lies close to the coast just north of Ullapool and can be reached by RIB from Ardmair Bay. There are a number of wrecks to see and some beautiful dive locations. At present there are no dive charters covering the area.
