Although it’s chilly just a few meters below sea level, Ireland offers a remarkable seabed for scuba diving enthusiasts. Divers agree: you don’t have to go very deep to admire the underwater life. If you go down a dozen meters or so, you’ll find countless cold-water fish in an exceptional aquatic flora!
It’s possible to dive just about anywhere along Ireland’s coastline. Galway, Antrim, Cork and Waterford are among the most popular.
However, we always recommend the presence of a certified diving instructor: never dive alone (this is diver’s rule number 1). Adopt an attitude where pleasure goes hand in hand with safety and respect for your environment: it’s the key to a successful outing!
There are many diving clubs and centers in Ireland offering excursions at reasonable prices. Beginners will even have the chance to take their first flight in the company of an instructor. As far as equipment is concerned, the clubs will rent you wetsuits, stab, regulator, mask, fins, weights, etc. without any problem.
