Whangarei Heads Old Women

This dive site in the water can only be accessed by boat. It features a rocky kelpy shoreline that gradually descends to around 12m and transitions into a sandy bottom. Divers will discover impressive pinnacles and swim throughs in the area. As you venture further from the shore and follow the sandy bottom to the 30m mark, you'll encounter even more spectacular pinnacles.

Marine life enthusiasts will be delighted to encounter Snapper, Moki species, Parore, Goatfish, Kingfish, John Dory, Stingrays, small numbers of Crayfish, and various other invertebrates among the kelp and on the sandy terrain. Visibility in this area typically ranges from 6m to 10m, offering decent underwater views. Although this dive spot is a favorite among crayfish hunters, finding them might prove challenging despite the seemingly ideal conditions. Close to the shore, there are gullies behind the rocks where we had the pleasure of spotting a little green turtle. We've also been fortunate enough to witness breathtaking moments like a pod of Orca chasing stingrays and dolphins cruising past. Both above and below the water's surface, this location promises an exceptional experience.

Please note that this dive site is suitable for divers of all skill levels, from beginners to advanced. It is located in Northland, New Zealand, making it a convenient destination for those exploring the scenic underwater wonders of this beautiful country.
