Adelaide and South Australia Diving Atlas
Rapid Bay is located on the west side of the Fleurieu Peninsula south of Adelaide. At the new jetty, you enter the water via stairs and a platform, and leafy seadragons, South Australia’s marine emblem, live under the jetties. The old jetty is surrounded by a restricted zone where diving is prohibited. The wreck of the HMAS Hobart lies in Yankalilla Bay, which you can reach by boat from Wirrina Cove. Boats to the great white sharks at Neptune Islands depart from Port Lincoln on the Eyre Peninsula, where diving takes place in a cage.
This book is written for divers who drive to the dive sites themselves or dive from a base. Each profile lists the entry point from the shore with parking, and the compass rose shows you which wind conditions make the site unsuitable. Sample weeks with a Plan B combine the sites into dive days. Above water, accommodation near the dive sites, restaurants, and excursions will help you, each location with a map link. Finally, there are directions, travel information, and the chapter on emergencies and recompression chambers.
You will receive an A5-format PDF that you can read on your phone or tablet while on the go and print as a booklet at home.
