Greencastle Shore is a shore dive site near Greencastle at the mouth of Lough Foyle, on the northern coast of Northern Ireland in the United Kingdom. It is rated a beginner dive, though the site reaches a maximum depth of around 50 metres, and divers have noted it can feel dark, deep, exposed and isolated, with strong tidal current at times. Marine life reports from the site include barracuda, hammerhead shark, tiger shark and whale shark, though these should be treated as occasional sightings rather than the norm for a Northern Irish shore dive.
