Sydney's underwater environs are as spectacular as its above-sea landmarks, if you know where to dive in.
The Captain Cook National Park at Kurnell offers a number of dive sites including:
The Leap
Normally done as a drift back into the bay this dive has a maximum depth of 21m. During the dive you will see a large number of seadragons, some great sponge gardens and if you look closely a number of seahorses.
Cape Solander
This dive offers the clearest water in the area. With a maximum depth of 25m this site has some spectacular sceenary. Can only be dive when the seas are very flat and is not a site for inexperienced divers. This site is one of the best in Sydney.
The Monument
The Monument is a very easy dive site. Due to its location right in the bay viz can be a little worst here than other sites around Kurnell. But it is still a very nice relaxing dive with usually lots to see including a large population of weedy seadragons. Maximum depth 14m.
The Steps
With a maximum depth of 14m this site is a great dive site, especially if you want to see Weedy Seadragons. The sponge gardens in the area a very extensive and this is an easy dive which can be done on a regular basis.
