Shag Rock - Swim Through
Shag Rock is a top dive site, conveniently located just a short 6 to 8-minute boat ride away from the beach where our Dive boats are launched. This exposed rocky reef provides a haven for divers, offering excellent protection when conditions elsewhere are less favorable.
Both sides of the reef present fantastic diving opportunities and are connected by an awe-inspiring swim-through cave, adding a thrilling challenge for divers of all skill levels. Whether you choose to explore each side separately or combine them for a comprehensive experience, you're in for an unforgettable adventure. Though Shag Rock may not always boast the highest visibility compared to our other sites, it compensates with minimal to no current, ensuring a tranquil and relaxing dive suitable for both beginners and seasoned divers alike.
