About Barolin Rocks

This headland site's popularity is partially because of its sheltered geographical location in comparison to other areas that depend on weather conditions for dive-ability. It's a good spot for novices to hone their new skills and can be accessed from north or south down the rocky embankment. There's a pool called the moon pond where entry and exit is favorable during higher tidal conditions. When the currents are right the spot can offer a relaxing drift around the headland.
