Jervis Bay, located on the South Coast of New South Wales, Australia, offers crystal-clear waters framed by imposing sandstone cliffs and sheltered coves that create perfect conditions for marine adventures. Jervis Bay Sea Sports operates from Huskisson, a charming coastal town known as the gateway to this unique marine environment. Their general boat trip delivers access to the Jervis Bay Marine Park—a protected area celebrated for having over 65 diverse dive sites within reach, from shallow reefs to deep walls plunging to 40 meters.
This approximately five-hour journey ventures out from Huskisson Wharf via a comfortable dive boat, guided by an experienced skipper and in-water dive master who choose the best sites of the day based on weather, water visibility (typically 10–15 meters), and group skills. The trip accommodates a broad spectrum of participants—snorkelers, open-water certified divers, and technical divers alike—with options tailored to everyone’s comfort and experience.
Highlights include visits to the northernmost permanent Australian fur seal colony, the shark nursery, intricate sea caves and swim-throughs like Governors Wall, and the famously lively cleaning station at Elyssa’s Playground. In winter, the chance to glimpse migrating whales at the Bluff adds a seasonal bonus. This blend of geological features and marine habitats is rare south of the Great Barrier Reef, making Jervis Bay a standout dive destination.
