Site entry/exit:   Very easy access, just walk down to the shore from the picnic site, be careful as it's a bit slippy when wet.

Underwater directions:  Swim out at about 30degrees to the East (left) of your entry point (the coarse gravel to the left of the wee stream, that's on your right) and drop to 4-5m and you'll find the wee wreck. A swim/dive further out, left or right and you'll find more bits and pieces of wreck associated with the wee wreck. There are some carved/chiseled stone beams to the right of the immediate area of the timber, these might have been cargo. They are quite big. At this depth (15-18m depending on tide) there is a field of Phosphorescent sea pens Exit can be afforded pretty much anywhere along the shore except midway, but it's only a short surface swim either way.

Dive Report:   Chrishine  14/2/11  known as The Old Cemetery site, is easy enough to find and the wreck, or what is left of a small sailing skiff, lies on the bolder slope between 4 and 7m. Just enter a little left of the burn below the picnic benches, head straight out and when you get to 5m turn left and continue along that contour. You will find the wreck within 5 minutes. We missed it first time finding a group of large worked stones further out at 12m
