Why dive here
Strytan Hydrothermal Chimney is a pinnacle dive where divers can encounter blue whales, dwarf minke whales, humpback whales, orcas and seals & sea lions.
Bishop's Island on Ireland's West Coast offers a raw Atlantic diving experience. We've often found ourselves exploring rugged rock formations and swim-throughs here, feeling the surge of the open ocean. Expect to see the usual suspects for this region: wrasse, pollack, and sometimes a curious grey seal. It's a spot best suited for divers comfortable with cooler water and potentially dynamic conditions.
