Lonsdale Bommies
Discovered and named by one of the great local diving legends, this dive site is spectacular. Approximately 1 kilometer from the Point Lonsdale Light and clear of the shipping channel, just outside Port Phillip Heads, is an amazing area of bommies, or underwater rock formations.
The strong current flowing this area has created a nutrient-rich environment and subsequently prolific marine growth and the associated marine life.
