    StandoutExceptional marine biodiversity

    We’ve found Yenkoranu Jetty to be a pleasant, low-key dive, particularly good for macro lovers. Descending along the jetty’s pylons, you’re quickly into a world of small wonders. Look closely for Denise’s pygmy seahorses, often tucked into gorgonians, and the vibrant flash of Flame Cardinalfish hovering in the shadows. It’s a shallower site, generally 5 to 20 metres, making it a relaxed option when you’re looking for a longer bottom time and a chance to truly slow down.

    Safety Notes

    Strong currents typical this month (avg 35 cm/s). Good buoyancy control essential.
