Sangalaki Island - Derawan Islands
Black Carrs offers a solid dive for those exploring the Scottish East Coast. You’ll find a mix of rocky outcrops and kelp beds, sheltering crabs, lobsters, and often inquisitive wrasse. It’s generally a shore dive, making it accessible for independent groups comfortable with a bit of a walk. We’d suggest it for divers looking for a straightforward, classic UK temperate water experience.
