Type of Dive: Scenic Shore
Suggested experience: Novice/Open water

Lat & Long: 60:09:04N 1:09:01W
Depth: To Follow
Site entry/exit: Clamber down the rocks that rim the edge of the bay and use the concrete slip to don fins and enter the water. This can get slippery at low tide so probably better done at high tide
Underwater directions: Swim straight out keeping over to the left of the bay where the sandy bottom is littered with hundreds of discarded razor shells. Soon you come to some large rocky outcrops that are covered in kelp. In places where these are not thick you can elbow your way in watch the antics of the little harbour crabs as they literally scramble over the heads of the slightly larger and less volatile shore crabs. Pale pink urchins are dotted here and there and the beautiful stubby tentacles of large dahlia anemones beckon. Finning out a little deeper the sand is populated once again by dozens of hermit crabs and sand gobies.

Air & Nitrox fills: I got my fills from Bob Anderson who was up there with his liveaboard Halton (he usually is every July/ August). There are often other dive boats around that would help out I am sure. Other than that contact the local dive club Zetland SAC 01806 588261
