Additional Information
English (Translate this text in English): This is a memorial park for sailors lost at sea on the Heberidean. Summertime it is a popular fishing location and the narrows for a quite acttive small harbour. Therefore, we usually restrict our diving here to the fall, winter and spring with rare summer visits.
At high tide one can jump off the left corner of the wharf into 5 m of water on a slope which drops quickly to 8 m deep. Low tide, you can pick your way down the rocky shoreline to the left of th breakwater and enter a little covelette.
The left side of the mouth of the cove is a boulder slope covered in a rich kelp bed dropping down to 10 m deep onto a sandy plain that makes up the rest of the cove. The nicest dive is along the sand edge going out on the left; then go up 3-4 m shallower and return back through the kelp forest; using the sand plain as a landmark going and coming.
The far point at the mouth of the cove is about 300 m away and is Tribune Head, named for the French Frigate captured and recommissioned by the British, La Tribune that sank in front of it in 1797. Ballast, ribs, a few spikes and one cannon can be found off here in about 18 m of water.
