Conger Alley is a popular shore dive on the north end of Loch Long, in Scotland. Divers can find a wealth of life here, including anemones, mackerel, dogfish, starfish and as the name suggests, conger eels. You may also encounter a friendly seal and the occasional lobster. Some parts of the site are very silty, so good buoyancy is essential.
Surrounding hills protect the dive site from bad weather, so currents are minimal and you can dive here most of the year. Water temps are between 10-15°C/…

Divers can find a wealth of life here, including anemones, mackerel, dogfish, starfish and as the name suggests, conger eels. You may also encounter a friendly seal and the occasional lobster. Some parts of the site are very silty, so good buoyancy is essential.
Surrounding hills protect the dive site from bad weather, so currents are minimal and you can dive here most of the year. Water temps are between 10-15°C/50-59°F, so a thick wetsuit or drysuit is recommended.
The maximum depth is up to 30 metres/98 feet. Visibility averages 5-10 metres/16-32 feet.

Conga Alley has two awesome reefs to be explored with an abundance of life. This site is aptly named "conga alley" as it has many conga eels that hide under the various boulders. You can do both reefs on one dive or separate them over two. This is a good teaching site.
