Underwater Recommendations

The many bays around Bremer Bay offer shelter in different conditions making it possible most of the time to go diving. The granite and limestone reefs offer habitats for a range of temperate marine life including Blue Groupers, Kingfish, Snapper, Australian Salmon and Seadragons (both Leafy and Weedy!). Surprisingly, a few hard and soft coral can be found here too. If you are lucky you can dive/snorkel with the Sea Lions. Depth ranges from 10 ?¢¬Ä¬ì 25 meters.
