A Frames, Loch Long - Scotland

It had been a year since I dived in Scotland at St Abbs last September so it was great to do a night dive again at Loch Long.  This site was one of the first places I did with my dry suit so it was good to return.  It's a very popular dive site for dive training and not too far from Glasgow.


Plenty of underwater life here.  On the first dive (minus the camera) we saw pleny of shrimp.  There were loads of starfish, velvet swimming crabs, hermit crabs, squat lobsters, and long-legged spider crabs.  There were peacock fan worms along the frames which look nice when lit up.

Highlight of the second dive was a juvenile squid, first thought to be cuttlefish (?), which I managed to follow for a bit.
