Dive for a weekend at South West Rocks and Fish Rock Cave

The Dive Site
Fish Rock Cave at South West Rocks is consistently rated as one of the Top 10 dive sites in Australia and with good reason! The gutters around Fish Rock are swarming with Grey Nurse Sharks all year round, as this is a critical stop point as they migrate up and down the Eastern seaboard of Australia.

Escape the craziness of Brisbane and head south for a weekend that will have you buzzing for months to come! Join us as we get up close and personal with the Labradors of the sea and explore the hidden wonders of Fish Rock Cave.

The biggest issue with this site is depth. We highly recommend that you elect to upgrade and dive on nitrox in order to get the most out of your weekend of diving (please ensure to bring your nitrox cert. card). Please advise us ahead of time if you would like to dive on nitrox to ensure that there are nitrox tanks available for you. Diving on Nitrox will give you substantial longer bottom times and ensure that you aren’t as lethargic at the end of the day.

    We are in the area the weekend of 21st-23rd December and wondered if it would be possible to tag on for a couple of dives at Rock Cave instead of the whole weekend. We have our own transport and basic gear but would need to hire Regs and Bcd’s as well as tanks and weights too. I am AOW Qualified on 48 dives with my wife having OW on 16 dives. Thank you.
