About this site
Conservation Bay offers dramatic underwater scenery with steep walls and kelp forests teeming with life. Expect encounters with seals, colorful anemones, and occasional basking sharks. The clear, cool waters provide excellent visibility, while mild currents create ideal conditions for drift diving. Rocky outcrops hide lobsters and octopus, making it a macro photographer's dream. Depths range from shallow reefs to deeper drop-offs, suitable for all experience levels. The bay's protected status ensures thriving marine biodiversity year-round.
