A little inspiration

There’s more below the surface.

Browse the local coastline, find a site that catches your eye and start a conversation. These examples from Dive NI show some of the variety on offer.

Carlingford Lough · Shore

Greencastle

A sandy seabed and an old pier with marine life to discover. A local starting point for exploring the lough from the shore.

Carlingford Lough · Boat

Hellyhunter Rock

A different side of the lough, with rocky seabed, seaweeds and records of spider crabs and sea scorpions. A boat site where experience and tidal planning matter.
