About this site
Rose II sits off the County Antrim coast of Northern Ireland, along the stretch of shoreline facing the North Channel between Ireland and Scotland. The area is characterised by rocky coastline and cold, current-influenced waters typical of this part of the Irish Sea approach. Divers here have reported common brittle stars, common sea stars, European edible sea urchins, keeled tubeworms, and rose sun stars among the life on the seabed.
