Why dive here
With 93+ marine species recorded in the area - including blue whales, dolphins, dwarf minke whales, great white sharks and hammerhead sharks - Emmes Reef offers some of South Australia's richest reef diving.
Emmes Reef offers a straightforward dive along South Australia's coastline. We often find the reef structure itself interesting, providing plenty of nooks and crannies for resident fish to shelter. It's a solid choice for a casual dive, particularly for those looking to explore a typical temperate Australian reef system.
