Best for advanced divers, 31-38m, boat entry, moderate current.
HMS Keryado is a shipwreck located 16 kilometres offshore, resting at depths between 31 and 38 metres. This advanced dive site requires careful planning due to moderate currents and potential for low visibility, which can range from 1 to 20 metres. Divers must manage decompression requirements and the risk of nitrogen narcosis at these depths. Water temperatures fluctuate between 9 and 18 degrees Celsius, making a drysuit recommended for most of the year. Access is strictly by boat charter. Divers should coordinate with their skipper to time the descent with slack water and must deploy a surface marker buoy before ascending to mitigate risks from boat traffic and current drift.

Time your descent around slack water to manage the moderate current at depth, and confirm the precise slack window with your charter skipper on the day as it shifts with the season. Carry a surface marker buoy and deploy it before ascending, as boat traffic and current drift make an unannounced ascent a serious hazard.
