The Plateau
★★★★☆
(8)
This is a dive in the middle of the Port Phillip Heads Marine National Park. The plateau is a huge rocky platform in around the 16-meter range winding its way around the edge of the platform. This is the deepest water in Victoria, originally part of the river Yarra.
Depths at the bottom of this area are between 40 meters and 100 meters. The slack water period here is short, hard to pick, and the currents are a little unpredictable.
