Diving enthusiasts from all around the world come to Australia to explore its beautiful reefs. If you find yourself on a cruise around Australia, you may want to learn how to dive and take advantage of your gorgeous surroundings.
Here are our suggestions for the best diving spots in Australia:
Lord Howe Island – Situated at the crossroads of five major ocean currents, Lord Howe Island is a UNESCO World Heritage Site with a view that you will never forget. Temperate, tropical and sub-tropical species of sea life all converge in this area, giving divers the opportunities to see very diverse animals all in one place.
Ningaloo Reef – The Great Barrier Reef is one of Australia’s best-known attractions, but one has to travel for more than an hour on the ocean to see it. Ningaloo, the country’s second-greatest coral reef, starts just a few feet away from shore. While you dive here, you will have the opportunity to see more than 300 species of coral and 700 species of reef fish.

Rottnest Island – The name may sound a bit unappealing, but this former prison island located just 12 miles from Perth is a popular destination. Under the water, you’ll see very interesting items like shipwreck ruins and limestone overhangs. This area is very visitor-friendly and provides swimmers with a map of popular snorkel trails.
