Frequently Serviced Dive Sites
★★★☆☆ Mornington Pier
First built in the 1850s, Mornington Pier and Jetty is a regularly used dive training site and a relaxing after work night dive site for many Melbourne based divers. A site which is usually diveable when the wind is up just a bit.
★★★★☆ Popes Eye
Pope’s Eye is a sandy shoal with a partially completed bluestone fortification called the Annulus. It was to be the foundation of an island fort in the 1880’s to protect the bay.
★★★★☆ Blairgowrie Pier
Blairgowrie Pier is located in Camerons Bight on the southern shore of Port Philip between Sorrento and Rye, on Victoria’s Mornington Peninsula. There is so much to see in this constantly changing, colorful environment across all of the different habitat types.
★★★★☆ Rip Bank
Rip Bank is an impressive underwater cliff just outside the south-east side of Port Phillip Heads. This site should only be dived at slack water at the end of the flood tide, and only in calm conditions, as the current travels along the wall and can become extremely fast.
★★★★☆ Portsea Pier
Accessible, full of life, and consistently rewarding, Portsea Pier captures the very best of Mornington Peninsula diving. It’s the perfect site for relaxed dives, photography, and unforgettable encounters with Victoria’s famous Weedy Seadragons, amongst numerous other marine species.
★★★★☆ Rye Pier
Rye Pier is an L-shaped pier approximately 500 meters long. It was built in 1860 to service the lime trade. The pier points North-Northeast so it is not diveable in strong northerly winds. A long walk to the lower landing located 50 meters from the end of the pier. Much better dive at night as more things come out then.
★★★★☆ Portsea Hole
Portsea Hole is about 500m from the Portsea Pier and is a remnant of the old Yarra River. The top of the hole is at 14m and to the north there is a vertical wall approximately 75m(250ft) long which drops to sand at 27m (90ft), then into a sand bowl which bottoms at 33m(110ft).
★★★★☆ Lonsdale Wall
Lonsdale Wall is the remains of an ancient Yarra River gorge formed when sea levels were lower during the ice age. Now flooded between Point Lonsdale and Point Nepean, the one kilometre wall offers divers overhangs, canyons and ledges filled with diverse fish and invertebrate life.
