Dive Sites in Ireland

[ScallopedHammerhead]

I'm looking to do 3 days of diving somewhere in Ireland in early September. Possibly Kilkee, Aran Islands, or Cork based on research, but any recommendations would be appreciated! I am not drysuit certified if that makes a difference.

Thanks very much.

Skellig Michael, the jewel in the Irish crown, Ballinskelligs (oceandivers.ie). Killary fjord, "scubadivewest" and the Malin Head wrecks " falcondivingchartors" we've had a bit of a heat wave and the water is very warm at the moment, but check the water temp . Welcome to Ireland and have a nice time.

Very good wreck diving off Malin Head but there's a lot of wrecks around Ireland, about 3,500 known.

Some of those are a fair old way out!

@ScallopedHammerhead - do you know of wrecksite.eu? It lists most wrecks and has some history of them

Wrecks within Irelands territorial waters and Infomar survey. Ireland has 3 times more territory underwater than overwater.

Thanks so much!! We ended up diving with "scubadivewest" in Killary fjord. Cillian and team were amazing. Would definitely go back.
