The home of Irelands best Dive site and the ferry to the UN heritage site Skellig Michael.

Ballinskelligs Watersports was the first Irish dive centre to operate totally independently and offer hardboat diving daily at affordable prices with no hidden extras. We operate the largest fleet of diving boats in Ireland.

We specialize in bringing visitiors to two of Irelands best Tourist attractions, the World class diving sites at Skellig Michael and the Island itself, which is a UN world Heritage site.

The photos on the site are from the Skellig Michael and from our dives. As you can see the diving in Skellig Michael offers a wide variety of marine life and excellent vis. The water temperature ranges from about 10c in March to about 16c in September when the water is at its warmest. Vis is about 8mtrs on bad days, about 15mtrs on normal days and up to 40mtrs on good days You can expect sheer drop offs and walls encrusted with anemones together with copious quantities of life.

Hard and soft coral is plentiful but the most startling underwater experience is the sheer volume of life and the acres of every type of anenome resulting in spectacularly colourful diving.
