Creggans Pier

Usual Loch sealife of squat lobsters, anemones, small wrasse, dogfish, blennies, edible crabs etc. Lots of decaying crap like a car roof, washing machine, corrugated metal. Big gnome collection midway through dive. All upright and in good nick. Finish dive when wall ends and you are in a gently sloping bay to the south (to the right) of the houses. Easy exit through kelp onto a shingle beach. Obviously, you could do the dive from south to north - hence the THERE AND BACK name sometimes given to this dive.

Loch Fyne. Park at the space on the right looking down towards Kenmore village there is space for 5 cars. Before the houses turn left down to the bay. Kit up on the rocks on the right and head out to the left. Underwater, turn left and head out to 16 meters, this is the top of the cliff face.

Council Yard

Probably the best scenic dive in the Clyde and its Sea Lochs.

Loch Fyne.
Leaving Glasgow on the A82 turn left at Tarbet onto the A83, through Arrocher and over the rest and be thankfull and through Inveraray turn left into furnace. Double back up the Loch in a northerly direction, taking the old road that runs through / past the quarry and heads back up in the direction of Inverary again. Follow the track for approximately 1-2 miles until you see a little road running off down to your right. This is steep and ill-maintained and about 20 yards long, terminating in a small car park area suitable for about 4 vehicles. Walk down through the trees to the shore (about 60 meters ). This is a steep, muddy, rocky path. It can be treacherous. Be wary if you are not dive-fit. At the shoreline in all but high water you should be able to see Stallion Rock breaking the surface just out in front of you. There is a little rocky area where you enter the water. Swim out and slightly to the left about 5m over the shallow shelf until you reach the drop-off. The cliff is straight down and drops to about 35-40m. Or by boat using GPS and echo sounder. Beware as pinnacle just breaks the surface at low tide.

Stallion Rock

Quite a silty dives site, Good bouancy control required. Have seen Thornback Rays (Raja clavata) here in the shallows.
