Why dive here
Bowers Ledge is a reef dive where divers can encounter humpback whales and tiger sharks. Water ranges 21-29°C, warmest January, February, March.
Bowers Ledge offers a solid Ningaloo reef dive, typically around the 15-20 metre mark, where we often spot grey reef sharks patrolling the deeper edges. Keep an eye out for whitetips tucked into the bommies. It's a reliable spot for a good mix of pelagics and colourful reef fish, making it a good pick for divers looking for a classic Outer Reef experience without too much drama. We find it’s generally a pretty relaxed drift.
