6Newfee
The best course is to proceed over Kelp 30 degrees West of North towards the inner face of Duggerna Head. There is a rock reef on a sandy bottom and a maximum depth of 10 metres. Near the car park on the South side of the bay, down step steps, Newfee is the most sheltered of all Kilkee dive sites and is usually accessible in all but the worst conditions. It is ideal for inexperienced divers. Newfee is also known as New Found Out.

9Doolin Point
The dive starts off dropping down a semi vertical wall to max depth of about 24m depending on tide. lots of boulders to find things under. interesting little cave system in the area for those that know what they're doing. Short walk across about 150 meters of flat(ish) rock. some clambering down - not too difficult. Easier to access at high tide. Care needs to be taken entering and exiting if there is swell....the rocks are very sharp Doolin Point is also known as Doolin.

10Gleninagh pier
Fantastic little site for night diving. whatever the conditions, vis is usually excellent. very varied selection of marine life from dolphins to nudibranchs. Slightly complicated finding it if you don't know where you're going - it's not signposted. drive west out of ballyvaughan for about 7 mins and its the second turn on your right.
