  • Scuba Diving at South West Rocks
    AUSTRALIA Famous for its grey nurse sharks and magnifi cent cave, South West Rocks features New South Wales’ best boat diving By Dave Harasti DIVING IS SUPPOSED to be relaxing. Picture turquoise water with schools of colourful fi shes swarming over a pristine coral reef. Diving at South West Rocks’ Fish Rock is different. Which isn’t to say it’s not enjoyable. Just that you’d better be prepared to have a rush of adrenalin each and every time you jump in. The adrenalin starts to build as the boat approaches the site, because you know that within minutes you’re going to be swimming among schools of massive sharks, or making your way through a 100m-long cave system lit only by the glow of your torches. It’s wild, and only going to get wilder. THE CAVE All along Australia’s New South Wales (NSW) coast there is great diving to be had at many of the offshore islands and reefs. But out of the hundreds of different sites, none are as well known as Fish Rock, located off South West Rocks on NSW’s north coast. Over the past 10 years I’ve been fortunate enough to visit the Rock on a regular basis – this iconic dive site is the best location in Australia to encounter and photograph the endangered grey nurse shark. What makes diving Fish Rock so remarkable is that each dive is always different, and there are so many sites around the rock that can be visited. Some of the more popular include the Pinnacle, Black Forest, Fish & Chips, Colorado Pass, and Land of the Giants; it’s the famous giant cave system that makes a visit to Fish Rock so worthwhile though.
