Blue Fish Wall


Blue Fish Wall is the outer section of Blue Fish Reef. The wall reaches down to approximately 25 metres deep. It has many large boulders, overhangs, swim-throughs and drop offs that make this an exhilarating dive with lots to see and do. All along the wall you can see sponges, ascidians, sea squirts, nudibranchs and all sorts of other sessile life. The fish that frequent this site are cuttlefish, mullet, wrasse, leatherjackets, sea perch, bullseyes and goatfish.

If there is a strong southerly wind blowing or dive conditions are a bit harsh then you can opt to explore the inner reef. The maximum depth here is about 18 metres and you can see a nice assortment of kelp, sponges, boulders and caves. There is also the same types of fish here that can be found along the wall.

Flagstaff


Flagstaff is an excellent shallow dive, starting around 5 metres and descending to 12 metres. Sandy bottom with rocks and boulders up to the shoreline. As you dive north you can see kelp, ascidians, sponges and all sorts of sessile life around the rocks. Octopus, port jackson sharks, rays, cuttlefish, schools of fish and nudibranchs can be found at this site. If you are really lucky, a fairy penguin might swim past you underwater as the colony is close by.

Old Mans Hat


A truly magical rocky reef dive accessible only by boat. Under the towering curve of Sydney Heads, the rocks jumble into the water and slowly give way to sponge gardens and a sandy kelp bottom.

Suits all levels of experience. The further out you go, the deeper it gets. At Old Man's Hat a depth of around 20-26m can be reached, further to the east it gradually drops to 36-38m. The area is rocky with a few sandy patches. Sponges and soft coral can be found on the rocky bottom.

Expect to see blue groper, cuttlefish, lizard fish, yellow tails, nudibranchs, pygmy leatherjackets, shrimps, ascidians, sponges, sea squirts and all sorts of other temperate marine life.
