All of our amazing dive sites are within a quick 10-15 minute boat trip from our beach where we launch our 2 custom built semi-rigid NAIAD inflatable dive boats.

Diving here can only be described as exhilarating! Only minutes away from our doorstep, Straddie’s reefs are teeming with various marine life like Manta rays and Leopard sharks during summer (Nov-Apr), endangered Grey Nurse sharks and humpback whales during winter (Jun-Oct), plus bull & eagle rays, guitar & wobbegong sharks, turtles, dolphins, octopus, pelagics, hard & soft corals, nudibranchs plus hundreds of tropical fish species.

We have a choice of 12 varying dive sites, all with their own individual experiences. This wide array of choice allows us to tailor your dive trip according to your experience levels, as well as which particular site has the best conditions on the day of your trip. Please note that we can NEVER guarantee a dive site. You will NOT be given a refund if we can not take you to the dive site you would prefer due to conditions or experience level of all divers on board. As always, we will do our best to accommodate all divers.

  • Snacks and water on board (please note we do not cater to dietary requirements, if you have special requirements we recommend you bring your own snack with you).
  • Warm shower and towels for after the dive.
  • Equipment hire is an additional charge, depending on what you require.
