Advanced Moreton Island cave dive with pelagics and winter shark action.
Cherubs Cave is an advanced Moreton Island dive built around a large hidden cave under a bommie, surrounded by rocky gullies, smaller caves, and fishy overhangs on the windward side of the island. It is the kind of southeast Queensland site that earns its reputation from both structure and wildlife, because the cave system itself is interesting, but the surrounding water can also fill with pelagics, grey nurse sharks in season, and enough reef life to make the whole area feel bigger than one cave entrance.
