18 Jul 1990 Seal Cave, Rubha Ghill Caves E end of Hirta St Kilda Scotland 30 30 30 Iain Hosking, Cathy Humphries Four stars Sea now rougher so chose this site hopefully in the lee of the island. Dropped off near the cave and dived into it - it's the size of a large church. The floor was round boulders decreasing in size from 3 foot diameter at the entrance to football size further in. We swam some way in before turning round and following the cliff round to the south. Walls of jewel anemones, cup coral, crabs, pollack and a seal, which observed us from a distance. Found four crabs pulling an octopus apart.
