Why dive here
With 199+ marine species recorded in the area - including blue sharks, bull sharks, dolphins, dugongs and great white sharks - Magic Point offers some of Sydney & New South Wales's richest diving. Water ranges 18-23°C, warmest January, February, March.
Magic Point is Sydney's reliable grey nurse shark spot, a sandy gutter where these gentle giants often gather. We've seen them here in good numbers, especially during the cooler months. It's a fairly straightforward dive, usually boat entry, and the main draw is definitely those impressive sharks. If you're keen to tick grey nurses off your list in Sydney, this is where we'd head.
