For a more adventurous water activity, why not try diving? The Atlantic waters coasting Achill Island offer some of the most diverse dive sites in Ireland. With dramatic cliffs and golden beaches it's little wonder that scuba diving here is so good.

The PADI-certified Achill Dive Centre is located on Achill Island with a range of courses suitable for absolute beginners right through to experienced divers, including a one-day diving course during which you can 'test the water', so to speak.

Dive trips can also be arranged to any of the numerous dive spots around the island.
