Dry Rocks East

Dry Rocks East is one of those spots where you find yourself lingering, just watching the show. It’s a mini pinnacle, but don’t let the size fool you. The top of the rock sits shallow, maybe four or five metres, then slopes down to about 14 metres. We love dropping in on the deeper side and slowly working our way up. You’ll be surrounded by schools of fish, thick curtains of sergeant majors, grunts, and goatfish. Seriously, they’re everywhere. Keep an eye out for the smaller stuff too. We've often spotted red clingfish tucked into crevices and those tiny, perfectly camouflaged seaweed blennies bobbing on the rock. It’s a fantastic site for anyone who enjoys a leisurely dive with plenty to observe, whether you’re into macro details or just want to drift amongst big schools. Visibility averages around 15 metres, which is usually more than enough to appreciate the sheer number of fish. Our favourite time to visit is mid-morning, just after the first boats have left and before the lunch rush.
