Alimatha Jetty
Shallow jetty night dive with nurse sharks, rays, and jacks.
A compact jetty-and-reef dive where calm nights can feel easy, but current direction still changes whether you hover near the sand or drift along the reef line.

Local Intel For Alimatha Jetty
Community notes to help plan your visit.
Scuba Diving
This is usually dived as an easy-to-moderate guided reef session, often after dark, with long observation time in shallow water and the option to drift with the current if conditions suit. Good buoyancy matters because sharks, rays, and other divers can share a tight area around the jetty and sand patches.
Snorkeling
The shallow water and jetty setting can also suit guided snorkeling in calm conditions, especially for surface views of larger animals. It is best treated as a supervised activity because animal density and night conditions can make the scene busy.
