 We have news

12nd of June 2021

The weather for this June long weekend is fantastic. Maybe it is a little too cold in the morning but that is to be expected in winter time, I guess. We have light northerly winds and that makes it a very enjoyable experience. thanks to very little water movement. The visibility could do with improvement but that might just be a bit much on the wish list. No matter if you are snorkelling or dive – you will get to see lots of cuttlefish. 
Unfortunately we had a few disappointed visitors today because we are fully booked for the entire weekend and could not help out with additional wetsuits. There are a few spots left for Sunday – please book if you need our help. We do try our best.


You can keep up with news on our facebook page @ Whyalla Dive Shop

Every year from May to August thousands of Giant Australian Cuttlefish gather at the shores of Point Lowly, South Australia because it is cuttlefish mating time!

Good thing, they don’t mind being watched. Their interactions and ability to change colour and shape will have you amazed. If you are ready to get into our shallow but cold waters you will be rewarded with an unforgettable sight.
