Company description We take parties of divers out into the largely un-dived waters of Loch Fyne all year round and can also cater for pleasure and educational trips on the Loch and its surrounding areas of Arran and Bute.
We are one of the few operators who are able to offer air fills to our customers and also to other divers who are enjoying the wonderful diving in Loch Fyne and carry a range of spares and have cylinders and weight belts for hire.
We are also in negotiations to provide a package for our clients which would include accomodation.
`MV Little Blue’ can be chartered to dive the sheltered waters of Loch Fyne on Scotland’s west coast.
The clear sheltered waters of Loch Fyne give visibility of 10-15 metres for most of the year and the scenery, above and below water, is exceptional with many new wreck sites waiting to be visited.
After two/three dives per day, evenings can be spent ashore exploring Tarbert and the Mull of Kintyre which provides an easy, relaxed holiday to suit the novice, experienced diver or people with mixed interests.
The boat is MCA category 4 licensed to carry 12 passengers and 2 crew and carries up to date electronics and navigational aids. There is a small galley for hot and cold drinks and snacks.
Little Blue is based in Tarbert on the Kintyre peninsular and will be diving the unspoiled wrecks of Lock Fyne with prices from £15 per dive. Air fills are available.
Lock Fyne boasts abundant sea life with scenic dives from 5 to 50 metres. Dives around Arran and Bute can also be arranged.
Location description: Diving in Loch Fyne can be a wonderfully rewarding experience, in fact we are surprised that it has remained such an unknown port of call for many experienced divers.
Dolphins visit the area and basking sharks frequent the lower stretches of the loch from June to August each year.
The Minards, being situated in the middle of Loch Fyne, where there is the most movement of water, have good visibility and the animal life is colourful and brighter. These cliff walls are scrubbed clean of silt and the marine life is superb.
One of the great things about Loch Fyne is that because it is sheltered from even the worst of weather, you could dive here 365 days a year if you wanted to. Only a complete freezing-over could be a problem, because a layer of fresh water does tend to collect on top of the loch in winter. The Loch provides first class diving without any crowds and enjoys temperatures ranging between 7 degrees centigrade in winter to 13 degrees centigrade in summer
Loch Fyne is incredibly deep in places and offers many excellent wall dives. Although some sites can be dived from the shore it is more comfortable to use a boat. For instance, to get to Stallion Rock, just a couple of miles south of Furnace, involves trekking down a steep hill through the woods and then clambering over boulders. You`d need to be fit!
Seals are often found lazing around the rocks, but they are too timid to approach divers.
Here you can find the squat lobster, scallops, large whelks and edible crabs. Large brilliantly-coloured sponges, sea squirts, feather starfish and brittle starfish are everywhere.
Further south from Kenmore Point is Stallion Rock, a single rock that rises from the seabed 30m below. This vertical and overhanging rock is covered in sea squirts, anemones and sponges.
To the north of Tarbert is Barmore Point, where the remains of the SS Arran 111 can be found well broken up on a sandy bottom, with lots of marine life and fish to be found around the area.
Photographically, there is a vast amount of interest.
