Why dive here
With 434+ marine species recorded in the area - including barracuda, blue sharks, dolphins, dwarf minke whales and great white sharks - Parc offers some of Flic en Flac & West Coast's richest reef diving. Water ranges 25-29°C, warmest February, March, April.
Parc, often paired with the Kei Sei wreck, offers a satisfying deep dive just minutes from Flic en Flac. We love the way this reef sits right alongside the wreck, giving you options. You can spend your time hovering over the healthy coral, watching Blacktail Chromis shimmer in the current, or drop down to explore the metal structure itself. Our favourite part has to be the flash of colour from the Longnose Hawkfish perched on the Staghorn coral, seemingly indifferent to divers. The wreck itself isn't massive, but it's draped in growth, giving it a ghost-ship feel. Look closely and you'll spot Dwarf Scorpionfish tucked into crevices and the vibrant blue of a Blue Spotted Wrasse darting by. Visibility here is usually excellent, often pushing 30 metres, which makes a big difference when you’re pushing the 39-metre mark. We'd suggest diving this one in the morning; the light filtering down is simply magical, making the reef really pop. It’s a great choice for experienced divers comfortable with depth who appreciate a wreck that’s been truly reclaimed by the ocean.
