Bare Island Shore Dive (Magic Point Cancelled)

Unfortunately we have had to cancel the Magic Point share dive. The swell is predicted to be a 2m easterly which will make the dive very unpleasant.

Instead we will do two shore dives at Bare Island.

 

My Favorite Dive: Bare Island, Sydney, Australia • Scuba Diver Life

Hello Doutsies! You all wanted more shore dives, so here they are!

Joined to the mainland by a small timber bridge, Bare Island is perfect for diving in almost all weather. In even moderate seas you can safely dive in almost any spot and in very heavy seas you can usually dive the protected (right) side of the island.

There are many different dives can be done around the island itself, as well as along the shore on either side of the bridge.  Options for the day include the western isolated reefs and deep wall (20m) and/or the inner reef.  For more information on what you may find at these sites, see:
