KILLARY FJORD

Dive Into the Wild: Killary Fjord Adventure Weekend

Join us for a weekend escape to our home from home — the wild and breathtaking Killary Fjord in Connemara. Based in the vibrant village of Letterfrack, right beside Connemara National Park, this trip combines dramatic landscapes with unforgettable underwater experiences.

We offer training at all levels during these weekends — from Open Water courses to Advanced Diver certifications — so whether you're just getting started or looking to level up your skills, there's a place for you here.

The weekend package includes:

  • Two nights B&B hostel accommodation in Letterfrack

  • Four guided shore dives with experienced dive leaders

  • All air fills included

  • Full scuba equipment rental (as needed)

  • Optional training courses from Open Water to Advanced

Diving takes place from a range of spectacular shore diving locations — both within the stunning Killary Fjord and along the scenic Renvyle Peninsula, offering a variety of underwater environments to explore.

Whether you're diving with conger eels in kelp forests, working toward your next certification, or just soaking up the west coast atmosphere, this is a weekend to remember.

QUILTY Co Clare

Dive the dramatic coastline of Co Clare

Quilty is a small village 20 kilometers south of the Cliffs of Moher with Mutton Island just off shore. The sculpted limestone landscape that we see above the surface is matched underwater by really impressive wall dives, pinicles and caverns. The area is rich in marine life with shoals of pollack, colonies of seals and anemonies packed onto every millimeter of the reef. 

We run several weekend Dive Safari trips to Quilty each year with dive packages covering one, two or three day options.

We stay at the Quilty Tavern which has excellent B&B rooms with Pub food and great Guinness!

The dives are very spectacular with depths ranging from 14 meters to 35 meters. The sites are suitable for all divers who have PADI Advanced level or higher and who have experience in colder waters (10 to 15 degrees Centigrade).

Quilty looks directly West so it's also a great spot for enjoying some wonderful sunsets at the end of a day's diving.

Highlights

Each Safari weekend to Quilty is professionally supervised by the Dive Crew at Oceandivers, we operate the Ocean Voyager RIB from Seafield Pier with up to 4 different departure times on Saturdays and 2 departures on Sunday. We operate a full mobile filling station on the pier for cylinder charging. Due to the nature of the sites we visit, you will need to be certified to at least PADI Advanced level and be familiar with Irish style diving. The key details are listed below.
