Lady's Rock is a low-lying skerry in the Firth of Lorn, named after a local legend involving a 16th-century clan dispute. It is marked by a small automated lighthouse that warns boats of the hazard. The rock is a popular destination for experienced divers, who explore the surrounding waters for shipwrecks, kelp forests, and diverse marine species such as lobsters and crabs. The site requires careful planning due to strong tidal currents, but rewards with clear visibility and underwater topography.
