You enter the water opposite the Buckle car park by a short walk down the beach. The dive site is approximately 150 metres off the beach but I usually enjoy the gentle swim along the bottom where you will start seeing marine life almost straight away. The cannons can be sometimes buried by the moving sands.

The harbour wall is a great dive either from the beach or by boat, the sea defences that have been in place since the early 80’s are a home for an abundance of marine life
