North of Sydney



Last weekend we drove north from Sydney to South West Rocks. On the way we stopped in Nelson Bay for a high-tide dive at Fly Point. We spent two days doing, er, character-building dives at Fishrock Cave. On the way back we spent a day diving The Pinnacle in Forster.

Here are a few pictures.

You, er, glossed over the most interesting part.

Well, the visibility was only 2-5 meters, so we didn't really see the sharks until we bumped into them. They don't like that.

The surge was also big and strong. The good news is you got to see every part of the cave 4 or 5 times on each dive since you get pushed and pulled (blown and sucked?) back and forth that often.

While doing safety stops we were being pushed around in great big circles, about 3 meters in diameter. Like a ride at the CNE.
