Top Snorkeling and Scuba Diving in City of Randwick

Enter water at end of path, swim out a few meters and find chain, follow the chain to the wall. Walk down path from the car park, enter at end of path

This dive site is a man made wall which was created when they made Botany Bay the new port for container ships. The wall is made up of many large concrete blocks of diff shapes which are randomly placed along the waters edge, these blocks create a wall of many many crevices and big cave like holes with a lot of spots where you can actually enter into one hole and exit out of another. Its a really interesting shallow dive and something a little bit different to what we all usually dive. A lot of fish life live amongst these big blocks and its not unusual to see very large species of fish. Put your boat in at Foreshore Road Boat Ramp, located on Foreshore rd, Port Botany. Its a big boat ramp area with plenty of parking. Its only a short 5min boat ride, you will head out with a aeroplane run way on your right and you will see the big container ships getting loaded up on your left. Once you get past the container ships head towards your left and go around the point at Molineaux Point Lookout. You can anchor up anywhere along the big concrete block wall, we usually throw the anchor out about 20m before the wall ends. I haven't dived this site from shore but if doing a shore dive caution needs to be taken when climbing down the concrete blocks to get to the water.

SS Kelloe was a iron hulled collier. It sunk 12 May 1902. This is a very good deep dive! The SS Kelloe lies about 1.25 kilometres off the Sydney suburb of Little Bay.

Northern headland of Long Bay

You can successfully dive this site from Shore. Just follow the rocks out to the headland and look for the two rusting steel (rio) bars sticking up in the sandstone rock formation near the water line. Site update: I just dived this site on the weekend and the two steel bars are no longer there. So look for the huge flat headland where the fisho's go and enter the water from the flat rock just north of that. This will be covered in seaweed, juts out into the ocean and at the northern end it curves back into the headland in a scollop. You enter the site at this point heading east away from the shore. You can dive here and stay up on the rocky shelf above 8m till you reach the drop off. At the drop off, don't descend straight away...move off eastward, to find Grey Nurse sharks swimming along the bottom. They are normally associated with a small cave in the area. Once you see them swim out over the top of them (so as to not scare them away) before dropping down to 17m and watching them from the bottom, east of their location. This plan will have them penned in against the wall/cave. When ready, you can move off and head North to follow the reef system back in towards the beach area and exit on the sand. Enjoy! South of Maroubra bay.

The Tri-bars can be entered at almost anytime and free access to the surface is continual. However many chambers and cathedral rooms can be found. Drive along the main road out to the port container wall park in the car park and check out the dive site by looking over the low wall. Move to the wire fencing and seek hole in same. Dive gear can be handled over the wall and then doned at the top of wall before walking (carefully!) down the tribars to the waters edge. Dive on the high tide for best vis and little current. The Tribars is also known as The Container Wall.

Easy shore dive in the Eastern Suburbs. Has nice bolders, some swim throughs, and fauna depending on the season. Can be dirty due to storm-water drain. Best dived in calm weather and not after rain or storms. Easy access from the shore.
