Experience Snorkelling
The North Argyll Snorkel Trail in Oban was founded in 2022, giving you some of the best highlights of our underwater world. Join our marine biologist guides and instructors to discover what lies beneath the waves.
- 3 hours to introduce snorkelling on Argyll’s coast
- Discover cold water reefs, kelp forests and seagrass meadows
- Learn about the wildlife and critters from our expert guides
- See colourful macro life to shimmering shoals of fish
- Visit responsibly guided by a marine biologist
Once you arrive at the snorkel site your instructor will meet you and guide you through your equipment. They will provide you with ample time to discuss and ask questions before getting in the water.
We will help you change into your wetsuit, and demonstrate the use of the fins, mask and snorkel, as well as provide our top snorkelling tips!
We can spend up to 90min in the water, but the session is yours so you can choose how long to stay in for.
Once out you can get dry, enjoy a hot chocolate and talk about all the amazing critters you saw.
To learn more about which species can be seen, check out our underwater wildlife guide.
