Norah Head (Cabbage Tree Bay) - Sydney & New South Wales

Red Buoy gives you a decent drift, starting deep along a wall that drops beyond our typical recreational limits, though we often keep it to 27m here. It's a channel dive, so the current often plays a starring role, ushering you past a mix of corals and outcroppings. We’ve spotted plenty of red-toothed triggerfish here, along with emperor and surgeonfish hanging around the reef. Keep an eye on the blue too, because you never know what might cruise by. It's a site for those comfortable with a bit of movement, offering a solid dive without being overly dramatic.
