Blue’s Canyon

Boat Dive
SW corner of Breaksea Island
Depth 9 – 45M

Should only be dived on days with little or no swell due to its exposure to the open ocean. The canyon is 5 – 6M wide and approx 300M long with the walls towering above you. As you start the dive from the deep end and slowly make your way towards the island you see the walls covered sponges on which cowry shells are often seen. There are also many deep ledges in which the occasional crayfish may be living along with resident wobbegongs. The canyon is home for very large blue groper and queen snapper, which swim about their business unafraid of the divers.

Best on calm conditions and no swell.
