Scotland Inland Diving

Dive Site: Linnhe Point
Location: Linnhe Point, south of Fort William
Description: Shore dive
Visibility: 10 – 15 metres (30 – 50 feet)

South of Fort William by road there is a nice accessible shore dive at Linnhe Point. There is a Scottish Trust car park where you can park you car close to the waters edge. Check the direction of the tide before entry then dive around the rocky outcrop at the head of the car park. Underwater here you have a great split level wall dive with plenty to see in the way of marine life. Follow the current for the most relaxing dive.

Scotland Inland Diving

Dive Site: Bishops Bay
Location: Bishops Bay, south of Fort William
Description: Wall dive
Visibility: 10 – 15 metres (30 – 50 feet)

Heading south from Fort William, take the turning for Bail’ur before crossing the Ballachulish Bridge to reach the wall dive at Bishops Bay. Either take your car to the slipway which you can see from the bridge itself (not the best option) or follow the road to the Loch Leven Hotel (check first if you can use their car park, then pop in for a pint after your dive) There is a superb finger reef which forms the shelter for boats moored in Bishops Bay. This is a nice drifting wall dive lots to see, plenty of marine life, different kelp and some unexpected things from the hotel. Be aware that the current here can be very strong, watch the tides!!
