What a day at Bushrangers Bay. Two incredible dives with beautiful conditions above and below the water.

Clear blue skies and sunshine greeted us topside, with calm swell making the entry and exit easy and effortless. One of those days where everything lined up perfectly for diving.

Water temperature was 18°C, with around 5m visibility in the shallows, opening up to close to 10m as we reached the second bay at around 17m.

The Grey Nurse Sharks were undoubtedly the highlight. We saw plenty cruising peacefully around the bay. As a protected and critically endangered species in Australia, every opportunity to spend time with these incredible sharks is something special.

The bay was alive with marine life throughout both dives, with schools of fish surrounding us, a resident blue grouper coming over to greet us, and a shoal of squid gliding through the water, which was an absolutely magical sight.

After a surface interval in the sunshine, we headed back in for dive two, which was every bit as breathtaking as the first. More Grey Nurses and bustling marine life made for another fantastic dive.

Two dives, plenty of sharks, abundant marine life, calm seas and perfect weather. Bushrangers Bay certainly delivered.

Sea Life V – Dive Report
Sunday 14 September 2026

Captain: Tim
Dive 1: Long Reef
Dive 2: Cody's Wall – North Head
Water Temperature: 17°C
Visibility: 10m at Long Reef; around 8m on the bottom at Cody's Wall
Conditions: Medium seas with some surge

After everything Sydney had already given us on Saturday, you could have been forgiven for thinking Sunday might be a little quieter.

Apparently not.

Our first dive took us to Long Reef, with around 10 metres visibility and some surge from the moderate seas giving everyone a bit of movement underwater.

The dive started in typical Long Reef fashion, with hundreds of Pomfrets greeting us almost immediately. Plenty of Port Jackson Sharks and Wobbegongs were scattered around the site, along with several Blue Gropers wandering about.

Then came an encounter nobody was expecting.

A Humpback Whale and her calf cruised straight through the dive site, passing several very lucky divers along the way.

Seeing whales from the boat is always special. Having a mother and calf cruise past you while you're underwater is something else entirely, and for those divers fortunate enough to witness it, an experience they won't forget anytime soon.

For our second dive, Captain Tim moved us around to Cody's Wall at North Head.

The water was a little murky near the surface but opened nicely to around eight metres visibility on the bottom.

Cody's Wall is a beautiful site, particularly for the colourful soft corals and sponges found at depth. Colourful nudibranchs added to the smaller marine life, while Wobbegongs and a few Port Jackson Sharks wandered around the site.

And that brought to an end what can only be described as a wonderful weekend of Sydney diving.

A Mola mola at Magic Point, Grey Nurse Sharks, whales singing underwater, Humpbacks above and below the surface, and dolphins playing in Sea Life V's wash as we cruised along.

Sometimes Sydney really does turn it on.

What a weekend aboard Sea Life V.

Here’s some footage from last Saturday’s boat dive at Magic Point with MOLA MOLOA!!! Diving has been fantastic over the last few weeks.

Sea Life V – Dive Report
Saturday 12 September 2026

Dive 1: Magic Point
Dive 2: North Bondi
Water Temperature: 17°C
Visibility: 15–20m at Magic Point; around 15m at North Bondi
Conditions: Beautiful sunny day, slight swell and no current at Magic Point

Some days Sydney gives you a little bit of everything. Saturday was definitely one of those days.

Our first dive at Magic Point started with excellent 15–20 metre visibility and wonderfully easy conditions. Port Jackson Sharks and Wobbegongs were scattered around the site, an Eastern Blue Devil was tucked beneath the sandstone, and schools of Yellowtail filled the water.

But for a few very lucky divers, the highlight was something considerably less common — a Mola mola, or Ocean Sunfish, cruising around the site.

Meanwhile, Eric managed a rather different discovery: a shiny stainless-steel anchor lying on the bottom. What followed was a successful recovery operation, and Eric is apparently taking his new treasure home to become a rather impressive garden ornament. 😄

Back aboard, the entertainment continued with whales nearby, including some spectacular tail-slapping, before we headed north towards North Bondi — with spring rolls disappearing along the way.

As soon as we entered the water for dive two, we were greeted by a large Grey Nurse Shark cruising around, seemingly just as interested in the new visitors as we were in it.

Exploring North Bondi's spectacular sandstone topography and swim-throughs brought more Grey Nurses, PJs and Wobbegongs, schools of Yellowtail, a friendly Blue Grouper and a very industrious little octopus collecting shells for its hideaway.

And accompanying us underwater was the unmistakable sound of whale song, heard strongly during the dive and adding something very special to an already memorable morning.

Mola mola, Grey Nurses, whales above and below, beautiful visibility, Sydney sandstone—and one newly acquired garden anchor.

An amazing morning of diving on a beautiful sunny Sydney day aboard Sea Life V.

Sea Life V – Dive Report
Sunday 6 September 2026

Dive 1: Magic Point
Dive 2: Mistral Point
Water Temperature: 17°C
Visibility: 15–20m at Magic Point, 10–15m at Mistral Point
Conditions: Sunny day, some wind chop on the way down, calm on site. Mild surface current at Mistral Point.

Dive 1 – Magic Point
The visibility looked a little suspect on the way down to Magic Point, but once we reached the bottom we were greeted with a beautiful clear blue 15–20m — a very pleasant surprise.

Grey nurse sharks were cruising around the site, with one giving one of my divers a particularly close encounter. He was busy looking elsewhere when a quick touch on the fin and a pointed finger had him looking up just in time to see a majestic grey nurse cruise straight past.

Port Jacksons and wobbegongs were also out and about, while hundreds of schooling yellowtails moving amongst the sandstone boulders and walls made for a fantastic Sydney underwater scene.

Dive 2 – Mistral Point
For our second dive we went exploring at a site we hadn't dived before — Mistral Point, an ocean headland near Maroubra.

With 10–15m visibility and only a mild current at the surface, we dropped in to see what we could find.

The first thing we spotted was an occy curled up in its hidey-hole — a pretty good start!

Following the sandstone rock ledges, it quickly became apparent that we had stumbled across a bit of a nudibranch heaven. There was an amazing variety of Sydney nudies, with many of them juveniles, so my keen macro eye was working overtime.

Schools of yellowtail followed us along the ledges, but one of the most memorable parts of the dive wasn't something we could see — it was something we could hear.

The whale songs were incredibly loud underwater. Back on the boat, Jacob commented that he kept looking up during the dive expecting to see a whale cruise past.

Congratulations also to our Advanced Course students under the guidance of Dive Instructor Lucas.

A fantastic Sunday morning of Sydney diving — grey nurses at Magic Point followed by a completely new site to explore at Mistral Point. Not a bad way to finish the weekend aboard Sea Life V.

A MOLA MOLA. On an Shelly Beach on Sunday. 🤯

Some divers spend twenty years chasing an ocean sunfish and never see one. Annabelle, Charles, Claire, Christian, Deborah, Ieva, James, Tamara, Tiara and Yannick saw one on their Open Water course.

Mola mola are the heaviest bony fish in the ocean — enormous, strange, almost prehistoric-looking, and almost never seen by divers off Sydney. To have one turn up while a group of brand new divers were in the water is genuinely extraordinary.

And that wasn't all. Port Jackson sharks on the sand, blue groper cruising in for a look, and an eastern red scorpionfish sitting motionless for anyone sharp enough to spot it. The day finished with a 15-metre dive and ten very happy new divers.

Congratulations to all ten of you. Fair warning though — it does not usually go like this. 😄

25 METRE VIZ AT LONG REEF
Sea Life 5 dropped in over Long Reef this morning and the water was as good as it gets — 25 metres plus, blue all the way to the bottom and sunlight down the whole water column

This is why we bang on about winter and early spring in Sydney. The water is cold, but it is clean, and days like today are the reason locals dive through it.

We are back out at Long Reef tomorrow. Same boat, same site, and the forecast is holding. If you have been waiting for a reason to get wet, this is it.

Sea Life V – Dive Report
Saturday 29 August 2026

Dive 1: Magic Point
Dive 2: Blue Fish Valley
Water Temperature: 17°C
Visibility: Around 5m
Conditions: Beautiful sunny day with moderate seas

Another beautiful sunny winter's day aboard Sea Life V, although underwater Sydney had decided to make us work a little harder, with visibility sitting around five metres.

But poor visibility certainly didn't dampen the spirits aboard. Once divers are on the boat, most of us simply want to get wet!

Our first dive was Magic Point. With the visibility making it difficult to see whether any Grey Nurse Sharks were hanging around the main cave, we headed east for an explore.

The local Blue Grouper soon joined us and followed along, while schools of fish moving through the low light produced a fantastic sight. Our torch beams reflected from their silver bodies, creating what looked like a shimmering curtain passing through the water.

Eventually we headed back towards the main cave for one last look.

And that's when Magic Point provided the surprise of the day.

Out of the low visibility suddenly appeared a Grey Nurse Shark, cruising straight towards me before calmly turning immediately in front of my mask.

I'm still not sure who was more surprised — me or the Grey Nurse!

I looked across at DMT Felix, whose eyes were about the size of dinner plates, accompanied by one very large smile. 😄

Hoping to find slightly better visibility, our second dive took us to Blue Fish Valley.

Conditions improved a little and made for another very relaxing dive along the wall. All the Valley favourites were around — Port Jackson Sharks, Wobbegongs, Moray Eels, and an Eastern Blue Devil resting beneath one of the sandstone ledges.

Yes, the visibility wasn't particularly good.

But the general comment back aboard was:

“I've seen worse visibility.”

And, of course, we all have.

That's diving.

Sunday 23 August 2026

Captain: Tim
Dive 1: Dee Why Wide
Dive 2: Checkpoint Charlie – North Head
Water Temperature: 17°C
Visibility: 20m at Dee Why Wide; around 10m at Checkpoint Charlie
Conditions: Beautiful sunny day with a slight sea

Sydney turned on another beautiful winter's day for two spectacular dives aboard Sea Life V.

Our first dive took us to Dee Why Wide, where an impressive 20 metres visibility gave everyone the opportunity to really appreciate what makes this deeper Sydney diving so special.

At depth, the colours of the soft corals and sponges are simply outstanding, covering the rock formations in an incredible variety of colour.

Then there's the topography.

Following the western edge reveals some spectacular Sydney sandstone formations — massive caves, swim-throughs and deep valleys creating an underwater landscape that is every bit as impressive as the marine life.

Wobbegongs and Port Jackson Sharks could be found resting amongst the formations, with schools of fish moving through the valleys and adding to an already spectacular dive.

For dive two we moved to Checkpoint Charlie, on the front of North Head, where visibility was around 10 metres.

Once again, the colourful soft corals and sponges found at depth were a highlight. Heading west from the anchor brought us to an impressive wall surrounded by massive sandstone boulders, caves and swim-throughs — another fantastic example of Sydney's often overlooked underwater landscape.

Congratulations to the students completing their Deep 40 course, and to Instructors Tom and Jacob, together with DMT Jasmin, for guiding them through another important milestone in their diving.

Beautiful conditions, spectacular colour and some truly outstanding Sydney underwater topography made for another memorable Sunday aboard Sea Life V.
