Dive-site story
Located off the Cronulla peninsula in southern Sydney, this sheltered rocky reef features shallow kelp forests, sandstone gutters, and small swim-throughs. Divers enter directly from the rock shelf near the tidal pool to explore a gently sloping seabed where sandy patches meet boulder fields.
Regular encounters with friendly resident eastern blue gropers that often trail divers through the shallows
Weedy seadragons camouflaged among the kelp and sponge lines on the outer sand line
Rocky gutters and crevices hiding resting wobbegongs and seasonal aggregations of Port Jackson sharks
Location
Use the map to plan with your operator and confirm the exact entry point on the day.
Seasonality
Autumn and winter generally bring cleaner oceanic water and cooler conditions alongside mating shark aggregations
