Dive Conditions: Hook Head

About Hook Head

Hook Head stands at the southern tip of the Hook Peninsula in County Wexford, where the Atlantic meets the Celtic Sea. The limestone caves, undercut cliffs and deep gullies down to 30m hold impressive populations of lobster, conger eel, pollock and cuckoo wrasse. It's an advanced site — tidal streams can be strong on the ebb — but timed to slack water, Hook Head delivers some of the most dramatic rock architecture in Leinster.
