Easter Weekend-Solitaries

 From:$749.00 AUD

Overview



The Solitary Islands is truly one of Australia's great dive locations; East coast currents and the cooler upwells bathe this marine park. This gives "The Solitary's" a unique blend of Tropical and temperate marine life.

In fact 80% is tropical so you find hard corals and tropical fish all year round. Sightings of Manta rays and Leopard Sharks are common through summer and it has been known to be visited by Whale Sharks on rare occasions ,so this place has it all. Visibility averages 25m and water temp varies 18c-27c (but up in the mid-20's around Easter).
