Sister Bank

Sister Bank is one of those sites where you just feel small, in the best possible way. We’re talking massive granite boulders, sculpted by time and current, that create a maze of swim-throughs and overhangs. It’s about a 35-minute boat ride, and the journey itself feels like you're heading to a proper offshore adventure. Dropping in, the depth varies, but the sweet spot for us is around 15 metres, winding through the rock formations. The light filtering down is beautiful, catching schools of threadfin darting between the cracks. Keep an eye out for the smaller stuff too; we’ve spotted tiny Arc-eye Hawkfish perched on corals and the elusive Bloodspot pipefish hiding in crevices. Visibility averages 14 metres, which is decent enough for the scale of the rocks. You’ll spend a lot of time just exploring the architecture here. We’ve had encounters with eagle rays gliding overhead and even a grey reef shark cruising by on the perimeter. It’s a site that rewards slow exploration and suits divers comfortable navigating through natural rock formations.
