Yes ! even around the coast of Scotland, the water is lovely!! Scotland’s seas are full of many varieties of colourful life. From the delicate, sensitive Fan-worm to colourful Cuckoo and Ballan Wrasses to Seals and Dolphins, though admittedly, we don’t see Dolphins too often. The underwater scenery around Scotland is particularly varied. There are the wrecks of Scapa Flow in the north, the terrific submarine terrain around St.Abbs and Eyemouth in the south-east, the Moray Firth in the north-east,  the rugged and fiord-like sea lochs on the west coast and then there are the Western Isles such as Jura, Skye, Mull, Coll, Tiree, Rhum, Eigg and Muck and finally but by no means least-St.Kilda. Have a look at some of the photos on the website and see what you have been missing.

You've probably seen The Blue Planet or David Attenborough-Natural World Documentaries on the TV, or if you are old enough, Jacques Cousteau and Hans & Lotte Hass films, and thought "I'd like to try that!" Well believe it or not, the waters around Scotland are full of colour and life. Now you have the chance to join in and see this colour and variety under the sea.  Clydebank Sub Aqua Club will teach you to dive in a safe, controlled manner. You will learn all the skills necessary to enjoy exploring the underwater scenery around Scotland. Of course it doesn’t end there. Having learnt these skills you can explore other great diving areas of the World – the Mediterranean Sea, the Red Sea, the Caribbean Sea, the Far East and the Australian Great Barrier Reef plus many other exciting places.

Above are some examples of colourful life in Scottish waters, they are all animals, not plants. Plus a photo of colourful life from a sea creatures point of view!! The photo was taken in a large aquarium at Deep Sea World.

Below are a couple of photographs from one of the best Diving locations in Europe-the St.Kilda World Heritage Site.
