Stingray Point

Stingray Point isn't about dramatic drop-offs; it’s about the hunt. You start across a wide sandy channel, feeling the gentle push and pull of the surge, eyes peeled for what’s resting on the bottom. We’ve spotted southern stingrays here, sometimes half-buried, sometimes gliding along with that effortless flap of theirs. Our favorite part is the crack in the rock, about 100 meters long and wide enough to swim comfortably through. It’s usually packed with schoolmaster snapper, their silver scales catching the light as they shimmer in unison. Keep an eye out for spotted eagle rays cruising the channel, especially if you get there early. We’ve even heard whispers of mantas, though we haven't been lucky enough to see one ourselves yet. This site is a solid pick for divers who enjoy a relaxed pace, those who prefer observing the smaller details and the thrill of spotting elusive creatures in the sand. It’s a rewarding dive for patient divers, offering a different flavour than the usual reef dives.
