About Spectacular reef

Spectacular Reef lies in the south channel and is therefore subject to shipping traffic. This is also part of the former Yarra River bed. The area is quite large and offers many different dive sites. All dives are characterised by a spectacular wall, which has large undercuts housing Crayfish, Blue Devil fish, beautiful soft corals, and an abundance of other sea life including Silver Trumpeter, Leatherjackets, the Rosy Wrasse and inquisitive White Ear, along with literally thousands of small Baitfish. Spectacular Reef is very aptly named. The scenery, rock formations, sheer drop-offs and the most abundant fish life in the bay, make this without a doubt, the best diving on offer in Port Phillip Bay. Unfortunately, Spectacular Reef can only be dived from boats with shipping traffic permits, and then, only if no shipping is in the area. Check shipping timetables before booking to dive this Reef.
