Enjoying the white coral sands with baby sharks!
Relaxing experience snorkelling over white coral sands with ocean plants growing from them. We saw dogfish sharks, shark eggs, an eel and various other small fish. Our guide was very friendly and clearly enjoyed being in the water with us. All the gear was provided. The water was a bit fresh at this time of year. We totally recommend.

The most amazing experience trying scuba diving

I had the most amazing experience trying scuba diving on my favorite beach in Ireland, with such a great and knowledgeable instructor that made me feel capable and calm during my first diving class ever. I was able to confidently use the equipment and enjoyed every minute. Thanks to Kirsty and Chloe for all your support. 🤿🦀🐟🌊

An absolute brilliant time diving

Had an absolute brilliant time diving with Kirsty and her crew last week!
Two of us completed our Advanced Open water diver cert and one completed his open water diver cert. The level of organisation was seamless, and the wealth of knowledge, professionalism and relaxed vibe from the instructors was top class!

Open water Scuba diving

Great experience right in the heart of one of the nicest beaches, how lucky to have the chance to learn so much with the Scuba diving instructor who makes it fun as well as enjoyable while having safety as top priority. Could not recommend Atlantic Scuba Adventures enough.

We had an amazing snorkeling experience here!

It started out as a rainy and rather cold day so my enthusiasm was not really there. But as soon as we entered the store the crews positive energy hyped me up to the max! Nobody else had booked a tour on this day so it was just my partner and me. Carol was amazing! She answered all of our questions and her positivity was catching! We saw so many things and animals.

Amazing day

Headed to ASA for a collaboration event with Free Dive Northern Ireland for an introduction to free diving session. Kirsty is just amazing. ASA is a fantastic facility in beautiful Ceathrú Rua. If you’re looking to explore Connemara in a unique way, then this is it!

A fantastic experience!

I had a fantastic experience with the snorkeling tour. My guide Carol was attentive and made sure everything was in order. Coral Beach is a beautiful area with plenty of animals to see. The pictures and videos that Carol took were of an amazing quality.

A wonderful company with amazing divers!

I can’t thank Kirsty with Atlantic Scuba Adventures enough for making our trip a memorable one. We showed up and they had all the equipment set up and ready to go. We met them and it was like instant friends! Kirsty drove around to a couple different spots to find us a good area to go in at and took us for a ~40min dive that was just incredible…

Frequently asked questions

Have another question? Email us at info@atlanticscubaadventures.ie.

The minimum age to learn to scuba dive and become certified as an Open Water Diver is ten years old.

However, the SSI Explorers program provides options for children aged six and up to experience snorkeling in very shallow water.

People of all fitness levels can enjoy scuba diving and there is not much strength or physical fitness needed to carry the equipment or to swim through the water.

However, you should be able to swim on the surface and tread water.

Before you learn to scuba dive, you will be asked to fill out a medical questionnaire. If you have a health condition which might affect you while diving, it is important to check with a physician to make sure it is safe for you to dive.

You cannot dive while wearing your glasses as they will not fit under your mask.
However, you can wear contact lenses, or even purchase a prescription mask.
