What we’re about
Join a group of likeminded Snorkelling and freediving enthusiasts. Join us here and on Facebook where you can connect and engage with the community between dives https://www.facebook.com/share/g/hrN5XcUgQmFpZJAq/
We will try to meet each weekend at one of the many fantastic Snorkelling locations across Sydney and the occasional road trip further afield. Our home base will be Shelly Beach at Manly, as it would have to be, arguably, the best place in Sydney to snorkel. Other sites will include; Clovelly, Gordon's Bay, Freshwater, Chowder Bay, Little Bay, Malabar, Maroubra, Bare Island, Fairlight Beach and many others. The calm waters of Shelly Beach are ideal for the beginner and advanced alike. We would love for you to join our group and come explore the many underwater treasures Sydney has to offer.

🦈🦈🦈 Snorkel with grey nurse sharks at Bushrangers Bay. 🦈🦈🦈
It really is quite the experience snorkeling so close to these amazing gentle creatures. Hopefully there will be plenty of them about.
Bushrangers Bay is located at Bass Point near Shellharbour, approx 85km or an hour and three quarters south of Sydney. It is a Marine Reserve, with plenty of sea life. We should be able to car pool to organise transport. Please feel free to post up messages here if you require or are able to offer a lift.
We can have lunch at Shellharbour Ocean Beach Hotel afterwards.
