Access
English (Translate this text in English): Shore access. Car park is near site (Stingray Bay). Toilets (with cold showers and change rooms) are 50m from the stairs access to the beach.
Make way through middle of the two islands towards the reef out the back. Needs to be calm ocean - strong currents can exist between and around the island, so dive on good conditions.

Additional Information
English (Translate this text in English): This are is a sanctuary, so look - but don't touch.
Reefs are all around this island with some extending right from the bottom to the surface (10m walls). There are caves, swimthroughs, bull kelp forests, much marine life, etc.
Diving here can range from easy to intermediate, depending on the tide, swell and weather. This are can be quite dangerous if the sea is rough, with strong currents and surge when wells are up! It is best dived when the wind is comming from the North and the swell is very low.
This area also offers some nice views for snorkelers for this part of the state, and is debatably one of the best shore dives that Warrnambool has to offer in the right conditions.
Car parks are plentiful around Stingray bay, but so are the visitors (families who swim at stingray bay) during the summer school holidays.
A toilet block around 50m away offers fresh cold water showers, and a place to change. You will need to walk around 70 metres across the sand to get to your dive point, and just before the dive entry point, will cross a small channel.
