The Bar - Sydney & New South Wales

The Bar, just off Sydney, delivers a solid reef dive when conditions align. We've often found schooling yellowtail scad here, sometimes in significant numbers, particularly along the deeper edges of the reef structure. It’s a good spot for a straightforward boat dive, especially for those looking for an easy morning out without venturing too far from the city. Visibility can vary, but on a good day, it offers pleasant exploration.
