Offshore reef dive with a slope-to-wall profile and strong current.
Mulloway is a boat-only offshore reef dive built around a sloping reef that breaks into a wall over very deep water. The site is known for pelagic action, excellent visibility, and enough current that buoyancy and depth control matter more than depth chasing. It is the kind of dive where you watch the show as much as you swim it.

Hazards, restrictions, and access requirements.
Key Hazards
Safety Notes
Light to moderate current is reported. The wall drops into very deep water; maintain depth awareness and dive within limits. Sharks may be present.
Access Restrictions
Boat access only; current and deep wall sections make it best for experienced divers and drift planning.
Legal Notes
Access is arranged through dive operators and boat briefings for the offshore reef.
Community notes to help plan your visit.
Scuba Diving
Mulloway is best as a current-aware boat dive over the slope and wall, where pelagic fish and sharks are the main draw.
Freediving
Only very experienced freedivers should consider the shallowest sections; this is primarily a scuba big-fish reef.
Snorkeling
Not a strong snorkel site; the action is too deep and current-exposed for comfortable surface-only viewing.
