Sydney is unequaled by any major city in which to scuba dive
A recent study revealed that Sydney has more marine species than any other harbour in the world. Some 600 marine animals have already been identified, and we can be sure that there are more to be found. One of the great attractions of diving around Sydney is its abundant sea life. Along with the diverse marine life found around Sydney, the coastline around Sydney is such that there is a great dive site around every corner.
Located central to Sydney's best scuba diving, Abyss Scuba Diving is Sydney's leading PADI 5-star dive shop. Abyss offers boat dives, free guided shore dives along with dive trips both around New South Wales.
On average, Abyss has more than fifty different scuba diving activities every month. There is no need for you to have a buddy because our divemasters can organise a dive buddy for you. As long as you have proof of scuba certification, no matter the diver certification agency (PADI, SSI, BSAC, ANDI, RAID, GUE), you can come scuba dive with us.
Note: Transport is not included for this dive, if you require a lift please be here no later than 45 minutes before start time. If no lift can be provided with the best option is an Uber to and from the site.

This site is one of our favourites and is usually conducted as a drift dive with the incoming tide. Step off the rocks into the big blue and let your self be taken along the wall, looking for weedy seadragons, rays and Pj’s. Its always good to get to the site early to get set up and then park your car at the exit point. The second dive will be held at The Steps.
A site filled with all the colours of the rainbow, come and explore the seascape in the search for sea horses and red Indian fish.

Please be at the dive centre 1 hour prior to departure to collect gear If conditions make the planned site unsuitable, then another site will be selected for the dive
This is a double dive with the location of the site at Jibbon Street Cronulla. Oak Park is a relatively shallow dive (max 11m) but the site is massive with a large range of marine life, from cuttlefish through to schools of Old Wives. Whether you are just starting out or an experienced diver, it is a great site for everyone.
Barrens hutt is located in the Cronulla area in south Sydney a few hundred meters off the royal national park. The top of the reef is in the 12-16m mark, but as you drop over the wall to the 28m mark that is where the site comes alive. There is a lot of beautiful soft sponges at this site and plenty of colour. You will see yellow tail, groupers, nudibranch, weedy sea dragons and cuttlefish. One of the exciting things about this dive site a nice little cave swim though, so bring your torches and camera to get some excellent photos. The boat will Depart at the scheduled time from Sans souci public Fishing wharf off River side drive. This location is easy to get to by public transport or you can drive yourself.
