Depth: 8 meters max
Site entry/exit: Enter from gravel beach and exit at same point.
Underwater directions: Enter from the beach and swim left to seaward and follow the shore along. Its shallow enough that on most days you will be able to see the bridge above you when you are below it. When you get to the bridge follow it along to the opposite bank and turn right to start heading inland then you can start swimming over to the opposite bank back to your entry point. If you get swept inland past your original entry point it’s fairly easy to get out the water on the Oban side of the loch. Alternately with boat cover you could go in and just drift along then get picked up by boat.
Site Hazards: Fast current at certain tides and up and down currents in between the supports at full flood.
