Seadragons (phyllopteryx taeniolatus) are an interesting creature that is unique to Australian waters and Abyss is lucky as we have easy access to see weedy seadragons.
The seadragon camouflage is quite good and they do resemble seaweed floating on the bottom of the seafloor. Unless you know what you are looking for seadragons can be easily overlooked. Once you have found a few seadragons it becomes easier to spot them. As part of the seadragon dive, we train you how to spot them and teach you a little about these unique creatures.
We offer three options for diving with seadragons:
At the moment we have a number of Free Seadragon specific dives planned, see the list below
Take a boat dive to Dragon Lair, one of the best locations in the world to see seadragons.
We also off private guided at a premium of $225 for the day, you choose the day and we organize the diving. Book a Private Seadragon Dive.
