About this dive site

This dive site is located in Gordon's Bay and offers excellent accessibility for divers and snorkelers year-round. The calm waters and a maximum depth of 14 meters make it suitable for all skill levels. A notable feature is the underwater nature trail, stretching 600 meters and marked with a chain to guide explorers through the area. This trail leads to 'The Wall,' an exciting location known for its resident Port Jackson sharks and Wobbegong sharks. Divers frequently encounter the Blue Groper, a well-established local species revered for its beauty and abundance along the nature trail.
