Sunshine Coast, located in Queensland, Australia, offers some of the most spectacular scuba diving experiences in the world. Subsurface Scuba, a trusted experience partner with We Wander, provides scuba diving adventures that are truly unforgettable.
One of the most popular scuba diving sites in the area is Jew Shoal, located in Noosa''s pristine Laguna Bay. This site boasts an incredible array of marine life, including anemones, sea sponges, and over 100 varieties of nudibranchs. With two main features, the first being a complex of canyons, ridges, and bommies, and the second being a pin that starts at seven meters and drops down to 16 meters, there''s something for divers of all skill levels.
Another local favorite is Old Woman Island, a vibrant coral garden that''s just a short boat ride from Mooloolaba. This site is perfect for beginners, with shallow waters and an abundance of tropical fish. The Inner Gneerings reef system is also nearby, offering a comprehensive coral network filled with diverse marine life, including rays, turtles, and moray eels.
For more experienced divers, the Outer Gneering Shoals is a must-visit site. With an average depth of 18 meters and visibility of up to 15 meters, this open water site is teeming with coral and sea life. The area is home to a variety of pelagic fish, as well as wobbygongs, leatherjackets, baitfish, angels, wrasse, and butterfly.
Finally, Magic Mountain is a challenging dive site that''s perfect for experienced divers. With complex structures formed by rocky outcrops, this site boasts an incredible array of marine life, including morwong, wrasse, leatherjackets, batfish, bullseyes, butterfly and angelfish, as well as numerous urchins, nudibranchs, anemones, feather and brittle stars, crabs, crayfish, wobbegongs and the occasional groper.
