About this site
New Rock lies off the coast near Kalutara on Sri Lanka's southwest shore, a reef site reached by boat from the town's coastal waters along the Indian Ocean. It reaches a maximum depth of around 18 metres, making it a shallower reef dive compared to many sites further along this stretch of coast.
