Easy shore dive in Tinderbox Marine Reserve south of Hobart, where rocky reefs, kelp forests and shallow bommies make the route simple to read. It suits beginners and relaxed divers who want protected marine life, a short walk-in entry and a site that can be enjoyed as a snorkel or scuba day. The tradeoff is that the reserve is cold and exposed enough that conditions still matter, especially when southerly weather or local currents pick up.
