探索福斯特
福斯特位于新南威尔士州，长期以来一直以潜水胜地而闻名。福斯特与邻近的坦卡里（Tuncurry）相邻，都以美丽的海水和狂野的海岸线而闻名，距离悉尼以北仅 300 公里。
福斯特只有三家潜水中心，都是历史悠久、值得信赖的潜水中心。这些中心都提供潜水课程，从初次发现水肺潜水到专业资格认证，不一而足。该地区没有潜水度假村或船宿。
福斯特潜水的亮点包括有机会看到巨大的灰护士鲨。不仅能看到它们，而且在某些地方还能看到它们成群结队，数量超过 100 头。在这里潜水的其他难忘时刻还包括其他鲨鱼、深海沉船潜水和洞穴潜水。
Top Foster Dive Sites
1. The Pinnacle
This deep (24–33m) drift dive is a sanctuary for grey nurse sharks—often 40 or more, sometimes over 100. Wobbegongs, eagle rays, turtles, and black cod are also common. Suitable for advanced scuba divers due to depth and strong currents. A shark lover’s dream.
2. Latitude Rock
At 10–18m, this vibrant reef features sponge gardens, kelp beds, and plenty of marine life including blue gropers, Port Jackson sharks, and wobbegongs. Ideal for photographers and all dive levels. Clear, sunlit waters offer perfect conditions for freediving.
3. Idol Bay
A kelp-covered reef with excellent macro opportunities and sandy areas that attract rays, turtles, kingfish, and the occasional shark. Great for intermediate divers and underwater photographers seeking diversity in both reef and pelagic life.
4. The Grotto (Big Seal Rock)
From February to May, divers can witness huge gatherings of grey nurse sharks. Great visibility and dramatic underwater landscapes make this advanced dive unforgettable. Explore nearby Eastern Gutters and Big Seal Rock Reef in one trip.
5. Jimmy’s Cave
A deep, technical dive (24–35m) featuring a chimney-like structure with several exits. Macro life flourishes in the shadows, making it a unique experience for experienced divers. Requires good buoyancy and comfort in enclosed spaces.
