About Diving at Phillips Reef
If you want to see a vast amount of marine life at a great dive location, then head down to Phillips Reef just off of Hobie Beach.
Great for night diving, this reef consists of a number of slender gullies running along the coast. If you are lucky you may see some small Ragged Tooth sharks, who visit the reef on occasion.
Local residents on the reef include the Blue Spotted Stingrays, a number of Sea Squirts, Corals, Hydroids, Sponges, Anemones and a variety of smaller fish. This colourful wonderland is stunning to see, exciting to dive through and definitely worth a visit.
Divers can expect to dive between 8 and 16 meters here.
