About this dive site

This dive site, known as The Fingers, is an advanced deep dive located off the coast of Albany, Western Australia. Access requires a 35-minute boat journey from the Albany Town Marina. It's characterized by a steep limestone wall adjacent to the entry point and is an exposed site, making anchoring challenging; divers should plan for a live boat and carry an SMB. The site is best enjoyed in low wind conditions due to its exposure.

The Fingers boasts a wide variety of pelagic fish species. Divers can expect to encounter impressive WA Blue Grouper, Queen Snapper, Breaksea Cod, Pink Snapper, and the fast-moving Wahoo fish, showcasing a vibrant ecosystem of larger marine life.

For the best experience, visit The Fingers during periods of low wind to ensure calmer conditions. It is specifically recommended for experienced divers due to its depth and exposed nature. Divers should be proficient in deep diving techniques and comfortable with live boat operations and SMB deployment.
