Explore Scotland’s Snorkel Trail Network
Experience the wonder beneath the waves on one of our award-winning snorkel trails. Together with coastal community groups and organisations, we have selected our favourite snorkel sites from all over the country that showcase the amazing diversity of Scotland’s seas.
Bursting with marine life, you could see everything from small sea squirts, sponges and anemones right up to dolphins, whales and harmless basking sharks.
Alongside helpful beach maps with beginner and advanced snorkel areas, these leaflets highlight local facilities (e.g. kit hire, parking, toilets and showers), family-friendly attractions (.e.g. visitor centres, parks and picnic areas), accessibility information and community-led marine citizen science opportunities – all for a wonderful day out!
Review your snorkel experience
Use Google Maps to:
- navigate to the snorkel sites
- each snorkel site webpage contains a Google Map pin
- you can also search for them directly on Google Maps using the naming system: ‘Snorkel insert site name (insert snorkel trail name)’ eg ‘Snorkel Inganess Bay (Orkney Snorkel Trail)’
- leave a Google Review of your experience (and read those of others!)
Plus, don’t forget to tag @ScottishWildlifeTrust on socials using #ScottishSnorkelTrails to share your snorkel adventures with us – we’ll re-share our favourites on our main channels while offering fun feedback, event invitations and maybe even some prize giveaways!
Happy snorkelling!
