  • Beware Reef Marine Sanctuary Divers Guide
    Beware Reef Marine Sanctuary Diver Guide Acknowledgements Many people contributed their knowledge, time and passion to put this Diver Guide Booklet together. We are grateful for the assistance of Parks Victoria Disclaimer This guide was designed and produced by volunteers. Diving should only be carried out by certified experienced people and undertaken at their own risk. Depths, directions, GPS points and other information in this guide may not be completely accurate. Beware Reef Marine Sanctuary is a challenging place to dive, please take care. For further information try: www.parkweb.vic.gov.au , www.heritage.vic.gov.au , Friends of Beware Reef Marine Sanctuary on Facebook. Photography by: Friends of Beware Reef Beware Reef Marine Sanctuary Beware Reef Marine Sanctuary encompasses a series of pinnacles of granite rock rising 30 metres off the sea floor, with only a small section at its northern extremity rising some two metres above sea level. This underwater mountain range runs for just over one kilometre to the south-east from the drying part of the reef, and the marine sanctuary that protects this unique reef covers an area of 220 hectares. The reef lies five kilometres to the south-east of Cape Conran and about three kilometres offshore from the beach at Yeerung River. The reefs that lie below the surface are rich in marine life and habitat, with a unique mix of both warmer and cooler temperate species, due to its location between the Eastern Australian current flowing from the north and a cooler westerly current flowing through Bass Strait. To date over 350 species of plants and animals have been catalogued within the Beware Reef Marine Sanctuary.
