Does anyone have any experience of Scuba Diving around Scotland and if so would you please share some advice on good dive spots? I'm PADI Openwater qualified but I haven't done any diving since I qualified. I'm just after a few refresher dives somewhere nice.

Sorry I wasn't sure which section this should go in. The knowledge base of the PH members never fails to amaze me so though this may seem like a pretty random post I'm sure there's someone out there who can help..

I dived the Isle of May off Kirkcaldy, great dives, though you maybe need a bid more experience. Scapa flow is something that also has to be experienced at some point. Again a degree of experience is needed, all good dives are quite deep 100ft plus
Interesting and weird coincidence. Yesterday evening I was in Anstruther for their 'world famous' fish and chips (which are very good but my rule is if the queue is out the door it's not worth it). I noticed there are boat trips from there to the Isle of May for bird watching and to walk around the island so I picked up a leaflet. I'll have a look at diving there but I've literally just done a PADI OpenWater and a handful of fun dives so it might be out of my league.
