Voodoo is a reef and wall site that drops away to 28 metres, combining a shallow reef top with a proper wall and drop-off that rewards divers who push deeper. Visibility runs 10 to 25 metres, with the clearest conditions typically in June and August. Moderate current is the norm, but it can build quickly, so solid buoyancy and drift experience matter here. Wobbegong and Port Jackson sharks rest along the wall, bull rays cruise the sandy transitions, and Australian giant cuttlefish are a reliable find. Sponge gardens dominate the deeper structure, with nudibranchs scattered throughout. Kingfish and Eastern blue groper work the mid-water column.

Whale Of A Time is a shore entry reef dive in New South Wales sitting at 18 to 22 metres, with visibility swinging between 5 and 25 metres depending on conditions. Moderate to strong current and surf entry demand solid buoyancy control and situational awareness, and decompression management is a real consideration at depth. The reef rewards methodical divers who slow down and look closely. Weedy seadragons and pygmy pipehorses are among the standout finds, alongside anglerfish, nudibranch, and octopus. Giant cuttlefish, moray eels, blue groper, eagle rays, and Port Jackson sharks round out a genuinely varied temperate assemblage.

Xanadu Reef drops from 26 to 44 metres along a wall structure that puts you firmly in deep diving territory, so gas management and buoyancy control matter here. Moderate current runs across the site, and surge can push you around on the wall, but that same water movement feeds the sponge gardens and draws in pelagics. Yellowtail scad and kingfish work the mid-water column while wobbegong sharks and Port Jackson sharks hold tight to the structure below. Keep your eyes on crevices for Eastern blue devilfish and weedy seadragons, and scan the reef face for nudibranchs and Australian giant cuttlefish. Visibility ranges from 5 to 15 metres depending on conditions.

The Hilda is a wreck dive sitting in 21 to 27 metres off New South Wales, rewarding advanced divers who can manage moderate to strong current with solid bottom time on an intact structure. Visibility ranges from 10 to 30 metres, so on a clear day you can take in the full scale of the wreck from mid-water before descending. The hull and superstructure are colonised by sponges and ascidians, while nudibranchs work their way across encrusted surfaces. Wobbegong sharks and Port Jackson sharks rest in the shadows, and Eastern Blue Groper, Red Morwong, Sea Pike, and Yellowtail Scad move through the water column. Nurse sharks occasionally shelter beneath the wreck.

Boat Harbour's main draw is its cave system, which shelters a surprisingly varied mix of temperate species in depths ranging from 3 to 17 metres. Visibility runs 5 to 15 metres depending on conditions, and a moderate current keeps the water clean but demands you pick your timing carefully. Inside and around the cave, wobbegong sharks and octopus tuck into ledges, while Port Jackson sharks are a reliable find. Weedy sea dragons and giant cuttlefish patrol the shallower areas, and eagle rays pass through the wider sections. Surge and surf at the shore entry require a confident, controlled entry and exit.

Voo Doo is a boat-accessed wall and cave site off New South Wales that rewards experienced divers willing to push into deeper water. The dive runs to 24 metres, where the wall and cave structure demand solid buoyancy control and a genuine awareness of the overhead environment. Visibility ranges from 10 to 20 metres, giving you a decent read of the terrain. Despite no current being typical, the listed hazards of strong currents and depth mean conditions can shift, so check locally before gearing up. Various reef species work the wall, and the cave sections add a navigational dimension that keeps the dive engaging throughout.

Osborne Shoals is a reef and wall site off New South Wales that rewards experienced divers with a solid mix of pelagic and benthic life across 11 to 24 metres. Moderate current runs across the structure consistently, so drift technique matters here. Visibility ranges from 5 to 12 metres depending on conditions. The shark life is a genuine drawcard, with Port Jackson, wobbegong and nurse sharks all common residents along the reef. Bull rays and Australian giant cuttlefish work the shallower sections, while kingfish and yellowtail scad move through in open water. Eastern blue groper are reliable throughout. May and September offer the most settled conditions.

Tabbagai Gap combines natural reef structure with artificial reef elements to create a varied dive across 18 to 24 metres of water. Visibility swings considerably, anywhere from 10 to 30 metres, and current can run hard through the gap, so reading conditions before dropping in is essential. The sponge gardens are a highlight, providing dense cover that attracts wobbegong sharks resting on the substrate and Port Jackson sharks wedged into crevices. Weedy seadragons move through the structure alongside eastern blue groper, while nudibranchs and Australian giant cuttlefish reward slower, methodical searches. Surf entry makes a boat the only sensible approach.
