Australia | an introduction to diving

Australia is a vast continent with endless potential to dive almost anywhere around her enormous coastline.

Most famous for scuba diving is naturally the Great Barrier Reef, which extends out into the Coral Sea off the northern coast of Queensland. This is a busy destiantion with lots of options and facilities so if you are looking for a more remote and peaceful diving experience, head to Western Australia. The tiny and almost unheard of destinations of Christmas Island, Cocos Keeling and the Rowley Shoals lie way out in the Indian Ocean.
