Welcome to Lochaline Dive Centre 
Situated in the small village of Lochaline, 44 miles west of Fort William on the West Coast of Scotland, our mainland position on the Sound of Mull offers a unique get-away-from-it-all location. Staying with us you will have easy access to the clear waters of the Sound, which boasts some of Britain's best-known wreck dives, in addition to an abundance of drift, shallow, scenic, and shore dive sites. The Centre also offers access to some of the most beautiful and tranquil scenery in Scotland, with an abundance of local wildlife. Wildlife trips, with an expert guide, are also available via the Centre.
There are two properties available for accommodation - the newly refurbished Dive Lodge, which can cater for groups of up to 24 persons, and the Old Post Office, which sleeps 10 and is ideal for smaller groups and the training courses run by the Centre (we currently offer a range of technical diver courses certified by the IANTD). Both properties have large communal areas, allowing groups to socialise and plan activities. All linen is inclusive.
New for 2009 is the Dive Centre's new charter vessel "Sound Diver", a spacious 12.5m Offshore 125 fitted out for diving with deep benches onboard, a compressor and a hydraulic diver lift at the stern.
The Centre can supply air (to 300 bar), nitrox and trimix (on request), and has a number of moorings suitable for small dive boats, which are free of charge to residents. Two other popular hard boats are also available for charter in the village.
The Centre offers catering for residents: cooked breakfasts, packed lunches and evening meals, plus a new Café O2, where you can relax with a coffee or a snack. Self catering facilities are also available.
