About this site
Explore a rugged underwater landscape off Clare Island, where the Atlantic Ocean carves dramatic rock formations. Schools of pollock and wrasse dart through kelp forests, while colorful anemones cling to vertical walls. Strong currents attract pelagic visitors like basking sharks in summer. Visibility varies with tides, rewarding patient divers with sightings of lobsters and conger eels in crevices. The site's exposed location offers shelter from prevailing winds, creating ideal conditions for advanced divers. Depth ranges from 10 to 30 meters, with surge adding excitement to the rocky terrain. Cold but rich waters make this a vibrant dive year-round.
