7km beyond Glengar take a left marked "Zetland Pier" and follow the road down to the shore for 2 km until you arrive at a charming open spot with a simple pier. while there is no slipway, it is possible to launch an inflatable into the water without much problem, while RIB's would have to be launched in Glengarriff or across the bay at Gerahies. The area around the pier is suitable for snorkelling while the attraction for divers is Sheelane Island about 800m offshore.At the Western end of the island is a small outlying rock with a splendid open cave to explore. The rocky bottom is covered with brittle and feather stars as it runs down into deeper water and life begins to peter out around 30m.
