About this site
The Shamrock lies off Lambay Island, on the north County Dublin coast in the Irish Sea, in an area typically dived by boat out of Dublin or Skerries. It reaches a maximum depth of around 60 metres and is rated a technical dive. Divers have reported that it requires exceptionally calm weather to run safely, in keeping with the tidal currents that shape this stretch of the Irish Sea coast around Lambay's rocky shoreline and reefs.
