Conditions:

Visibilty: 10m

Water Temp: ??c

Bottom Time: 60minutes

Max Depth: 10m

Details: The ANU website mentioned a couple of shore dives around Ulladulla, one of them being Jones Beach near Mollymook.

The dive is located in a nice little cove with relatively easy entry down a gently sloping staircase from the carpark. There is no beach though, just large round rocks that could get a bit dicey of if your not well balanced with your rig on your back. You decend over lush kelp beds in the shallower water and then i headed north east along a series of ledges that form the drop off from the cliffs along the headlands. The ledges were fairly barren and fishlife was fairly scarce but had the usual accompaniment of Blue Groper. Not a bad little dive with octopus, scropionfish, sargeant baker etc, but nothing world class.

Camera Details: Tokina 10-17mm 2 X YS-D1 Strobes
