Shetland is an ideal spot for the more adventurous diver. Although Shetland straddles the 60 Degree North line the Gulf stream keeps the climate significantly warmer than other places at this latitude such as Anchorage Alaska, Hudson Bay Canada, or St. Petersburg in Russia. Having said that, to dive in Shetland you are going to need to be confident diving in a drysuit.

Air fills can be had locally either by contacting C&R Diving or through the local SAA club Sullom Voe Sub Aqua Club
