Wexford – Tuskar Rock

Site Overview

Tuskar Rock is an exposed lighthouse rock at the edge of the Irish Sea, its steep walls covered in anemones and alive with pollack, wrasse, lobsters and the occasional seal. The strong currents and big swell make this an advanced boat dive reached only in calm summer windows from Kilmore Quay. For confident divers it offers dramatic, current-swept reef scenery and a real sense of the wild south-east. The site rewards careful planning, good buoyancy and a respect for the power of the Atlantic, and remains a favourite among Irish divers.
