The Irish Sea traces the shores of western Scotland and feeds into the Celtic Sea. Beneath the ocean surface lies a patchwork of habitats that are teeming with marine life. From the rock pools of Anglesey, its largest island, to the Lune Deep, the Irish Sea’s sandy seabed and soft coral is home to an array of wildlife such as eels, sea urchins, spider crabs and Dublin Bay prawns. Gray and common seals are frequently sighted in these waters, with just a glimpse of their heads playfully bobbing or basking on the rocks in the sunshine.
