探索曼利
曼利(Manly)的潜水是一门大生意,不仅每年吸引成千上万的游客,还为悉尼本地人提供了水下避暑胜地。曼利拥有悠久的航海历史,是悉尼最受欢迎的冲浪海滩之一。
这里没有潜水度假村,只有潜水中心,大多数潜水中心提供从初级到专业的全套潜水课程。由于所有的潜水点都靠近海岸,而且强烈的南风会掀起水面,因此这里没有住家船。
曼利潜水的亮点包括各种潜水点。这里有船潜和沉船潜,也有大量极佳的浅滩和海岸潜点,非常适合新手潜水员或在海面波涛汹涌时潜水。野生动物亮点包括著名的杂草海龙、灰护士鲨和巨大的墨鱼。

曼利最佳潜水月份
曼利潜水全年都可以进行。夏季白天气温在 20 度左右,二月份水温最高可达 23°C。夏季降雨量最大,但这并不影响潜水,只是在某些岸潜之后能见度可能会降低。
冬季(5 月至 10 月)的气温为十几摄氏度,水温为 18 摄氏度。冬季完全可以潜水,但强劲的南风会使海面非常汹涌,潜水船也会受到干扰。
