A-Frames at Finnart is a shore dive site on Loch Long in the Scottish Highlands, named after the distinctive A-frame loading structures on the old Royal Navy fuel depot pier. The site descends steeply to 35 meters along the loch wall, offering advanced divers an impressive deep wall dive with abundant marine life. The pier pilings and loch walls are covered in plumose anemones, dead men's fingers, and hydroids, while the deep silt bottom harbors langoustines, squat lobsters, and various flatfish. The cold, dark conditions at depth create an atmospheric dive. A-Frames is one of Scotland's most popular shore dive sites and a regular destination for west Scotland and Glasgow-based dive clubs.

Absolutely stunning dive site. The visibility was exceptional and we spotted several species we had never seen before. Will definitely come back.
Great spot for advanced divers. Currents can be tricky but the marine life makes it worth it.
One of the best dive sites in the region. Highly recommended.
