is awash with the most beautiful and spectacular dive sites. Divers of all grades will find a dive to suit them, no matter whether they want boat or shore diving. The more experienced diver will be able to tackle most of the many wrecks which lie around the Donegal coastline, especially in the northwest region, but there are plenty of dive sites for those with less experience also. The most popular dive sites tend to be near easy launching points. Depending on the quality of boat used, there are offshore sites, which can be reached in calm weather conditions, such as Tory, Inishbofin and Arranmore Islands. These can also be reached by a regular ferry, but usually only in clement weather. The more popular, and practical sites near places such as Teelin and Malinbeg in South West Donegal, Burtonport and Aranmore, off the west of the county, along with Downings and Malin Head in the North, would give any keen diver more than enough choice for a week or two. |
