ISLE OF SKYE - DivE CHARTER and the PORT NAPIER SHIPWRECK
The water that flows between Kyle of Lochalsh and Skye is called Loch Alsh and has been designated a Special Area of Conservation and is currently being considered as a fully protected Marine Zone.
Kyle of Lochalsh is a short distance from the famous World War II HMS Port Napier shipwreck. This 500' long minelayer is a very popular dive site, with great visibility 85% of the time. Further up the coast we have a 20cm vertical wall in the entrance to Kirktown Bay with a wide variety of marine specimens to observe.
In the vicinity of the Skye Bridge is the recently discovered Flame Shell beds extending for several acres -one of the largest beds currently known in UK waters. The fast flowing waters through Lochalsh are also home to large beds of brittle stars and horse mussels.
Please contact us with any special requests. We will happily take you to a destination of your choice. Hiring the boat for dive charter starts at £100 per hour and the maximum number of divers is 12.
