About Bare Island Pt2

Most of the Bare Island dives are shore- based. On the land side of the bridge there's a rock face which you can walk down. The three sites here are the east side of the island, Congwong Beach and Vince's Point. The reef to Congwong Beach or Northeast wall is a quiet spot for novice divers with a maximum depth of 10m and plenty to see. The eastern end reaches down 12m and depending on your air consumption you can swim out quite far. The bommie reef goes the deepest 21m and is only for advanced divers. The currents are moody but the marine life is healthy and abundant. (This is the boat dive.) The west side on the other hand doesn't go much deeper than 17m. There's a cave at 16 with a slight current. Vince's Point goes down for 10m and is pretty pristine. The weedy sea dragon is protected so respect that they hide out of survival. Divers try to catch them which is not a good idea since you may want your kids to see them one day.
