About this site
The South Australian is a wreck lying at 42 metres, and the dive is graded technical. It is a high energy site with a strong current, so it is dived only at slack water.
Steep drop offs add to the demands of the site, and very calm seas are required before anyone can dive it. Fish are the main life found around the structure.
