About 3 mile Bommie
3 mile Bommie is an offshore reef off The Entrance built around a broad bommie complex with shallow reef, caves, and channel features. It suits divers who want a boat day with lots of marine life, varied terrain, and a site that rewards steady pacing and good buoyancy more than heavy exertion. Boat access and changing sea conditions are part of the normal setup, so it works best as a relaxed offshore day rather than a rushed drop-in.
