Céibh an Dóilín is a small sheltered pier just north of Trá an Doilín. This site is a great alternative for training in poor weather conditions as it is sheltered in all directions.

The Alain Dominique Wreck sits in approximately 12m-16m of water depending on tides. It sank some time in the mid 90’s. . This is a great site for an introduction to boat and wreck diving but it must be dived at slack water to avoid a strong drift. It can be easily identified at the surface as a green buoy.
