No services at all and no safety equipment. Excellent diving location but with risks.
Nantle, nr Penygroes, Caernarfon, Wales

Overview |
Introduction
A great place to dive with lots of interesting features. Sadly there are no facilities at all other than a rough track and some space to park. It does get very busy at the weekend.
There are two main access points to the lake, both can be a bit tricky when laden with kit etc.
I love this place! |
