About Lonsdale Wall

Located on the Lonsdale side of Port Phillip Heads, the Lonsdale Wall extends for approximately 1km underwater, therefore providing many different dive opportunities from the one site location. An almost vertical drop characterises the wall. As you descend, there is a slight step-out every 6-9metres and behind each step-out there is a huge overhang, which is easy to swim through. These overhangs support an enormous variety of fish including the spectacular Blue Devils. You can also see soft corals, sponges and many other invertebrate marine life. To experience the full depth (38 metres) of this dive site you must have Deep Diver Specialty or Technical certifications.
