Shore dives are often ideal for first sea dives but in themselves offer interesting experiences allowing more flexibility when planning:
Trefor Pier – Located on the Llyn peninsular it is a site popular because of it’s safety and diverse marine life. Unfortunately the pier has now been removed so care is needed.
Criccieth beach – a sheltered beach dive with lots of marine life. You can even have an ice cream afterwards.
Porth Ysgaden – on the llyn peninsular this is a nice sheltered site suitable for novices.
Menai Strait – There are a number of shore dives near the suspension bridge. Slack water is required so careful planning is needed. More for the experienced diver.
Porth Castell (Ravens point) at Trearddur bay on Angelsey – this is a nice sheltered site suitable for novices and family outings on the beach.
Mackenzie landing in Holyhead – A dive with a difference, there are steps!!. Great fun with lots to see. keep a look out for lost holiday makers property.
Newry beach in Holyhead – close to mackenzie landing but with sand, chips and ice cream. A family day out.
