All gear supplied; lunch and hot drinks included throughout the day.

What to expect

You'll board the Blue Destiny early morning and motor to Rottnest Island's dive sites. Two dives are scheduled with surface intervals for lunch and a breather. The underwater landscape is dominated by lime stone structures draped in soft corals, with schools of reef fish moving through the water column. Between dives, you can eat, drink hot chocolate or coffee, and socialise with other divers. The boat rocks moderately in swell, and you'll need to be comfortable descending and ascending repeatedly. Most sites sit 8–15 metres deep, suiting recreational divers. If diving isn't your preference, snorkelling or simply staying topside is acceptable.
