A fascinating and informative guide to dive sites in each state, with clear maps, advice for marine protection and collection, tidal information, evaluating a dive operator, emergency diving procedures and more.
Why do they do it? Why, on a cold winter's day, do they make the effort to drive to a wind-swept spot, don a wetsuit and 20 kilos of diving equipment and then plunge into an often freezing ocean? It seems like much effort for a short, transient pleasure.
But to dive some or all of the spots Keith Hockton writes about in his book and experience some of the amazing things he's seen would only partly answer the question. There is another world out there; better still, that world is at your doorstep.
Australia, one of the world's most desirable tourist destinations, continues to dazzle travellers by its sheer diversity and its amazing, unique flora and fauna. Australia also boasts some of the most unbelievable diving around its entire coast, several inland cave systems, and the Great Barrier Reef.
This book, in the style of Mark Warren's 'Atlas Of Australian Surfing', reveals hidden and popular dive sites, including wreck locations, reefs, snorkel sites, and sports where you can see grey nurse sharks, sponge gardens and coral.
