Some good wrecks up there - try googling for :

Jambo - fairly recent (and not the sad wreck that now is H.M.F.C. )
Innesjura - nice wooden wreck
Fairview V - fishing boat - small but v pretty dive.

The last 2 are with in a stone's throw of each other. So much so that a couple of year's back we set out to dive the Innesjura but landed on the Fairview - ho, hum.

In terms of scenic dives - the cliff off the back of Isle Martin is deep and dark
and you can easily blast out to the Summer isles - very pretty scenic dives.


Ullapool Sub Aqua Club Dives has some good info.

In terms of fills - not exactly sure as we take our own compressors;

Air - there is a dive charter out of Camusnagel on Little Loch Broom - they may be able to give fills;
O2 front - no idea I'm afraid. Suggest you ask the local club.

In terms of post dive bits - the Celigdh Place is good for food and the FBI (Ferry Boat Inn) has a good pint.

Last time I was there I dived the Fairweather 5 a pretty little wreck, also called the Fairview 5 (apparently) and the Boston Stirling which is so shallow bits of it dry at low tide. This was ages ago so things might have changed.

I always remember Ullapool being a great week spent diving, but a right royal pain to get to.

Good luck

Ask the Ullapool dive club for information on gas, it might be hard to come by... Been up there myself (at the summer isles) and took own compressor.

Thank you, Pike. I am glad you were paying attention and spotted my deliberate mistake.

There are some very nice walls around Isle Martin, particularly on its north side. Deep as like!

Richard on Little Loch Broom might be able to help you with air but it's a bit of a drive.
