Dive-site story
Situated off the outer oceanic side of Beecroft Peninsula outside Jervis Bay, this offshore site consists of dramatic rocky islets flanked by sheer underwater drop-offs and sea caves. Ocean swells wash nutrient-rich water over boulder fields carpeted in colorful sea sponges, creating prime habitat for temperate reef fishes and visiting pelagics.
Resident Australian fur seals that dart around divers in the shallows
Expansive sea caverns and deep fissures cutting into the sea stacks
Encounters with schooling yellowtail kingfish and resting wobbegongs
