Another day in Locheport

I found a new dive site yesterday and decided to return with the camera. Entry is by a old stream bed and beach covered at high tides, but easy to walk down to at low, then a swim out and down. This is a shallow site only some 13 m at low tide, so plenty of light. The dive is then around the outer side of a small islet coming all the way around to the start point. It is a mixture of large rocks and boulders, then shingle where it meets the loch floor. Quite a bit of life around not non of the larger fish I saw the day before.

Marks in the Muddy bottom as I was returning to shore, so sort animal in the hole no doubt.
