The Gantry

Last dived the site in 1988, and haven't been there since but my dive log says it was a good dive. The reef as can be seen is quite big and can be dived on both sides, or from the North and southern tips of the reef.  You will need to engage a local dive shop to organise a boat dive in the area.



Light House Reef

Kelp beds, gorgonian fans, crustaceans, sponges and a variety of fish life.

Entry at the boat ramp, head left from the ramp or head out to sea and south around the point. 

Dalmeny Boat Ramp

Seek GPS info from local dive shops in Jervis Bay.

This dive very close to shore, best accessed by boat, is a square 20ft by 20ft pinnacle rising from the sandy ocean floor (30m) to within 6m of the surface and has a flat top.  It's is really curious to be able to spiral the whole pinnacle all the way to the surface with various small species following your progress. Large pelagic fish visit the site at different times as does the lone seal form time to time. The rocky shoreline can also be dive on this dive as vis is usually great (15m+), but is typically a barren area.

The Igor

Very nice dive with very interesting species, including spiders!

This deep dive (56m) is off shore of the Stoney Creek inlet on the coast.  It can only be dived by boat and due to depth, experienced divers need only apply.
