Maccallum Girls

Maccallum Girls always delivers, especially if you’re into the smaller stuff. This isn’t a deep dive, topping out around 19 metres, but it’s packed. We love drifting along the reef wall, spotting those easily missed creatures. Keep an eye out for Lyre Gobies darting between the coral heads, and if you’re lucky, you’ll catch a glimpse of a sleepy Broad Shad tucked away. We’ve had some fantastic encounters here, from schools of Schoolmaster snapper shimmering in the sun to the occasional Tarpon Snook ghosting by. The hard and soft corals are impressive, particularly the large sea fans and corky sea fingers. Visibility often hovers around 10 metres, which is decent for close-up photography. Our favourite time to dive Maccallum Girls is in the morning, before the dive boats from West End arrive. It’s perfect for divers who appreciate a slow pace and the thrill of discovery.
