About This Dive Spot
Sylvan Park is a dive site located at Lake Pupuke, characterized by a less steep entry compared to other locations on the lake. Divers can access the site from the shore via boat ramps leading down from the parking area. The underwater terrain is predominantly shallow towards the eastern bay, while depths increase as one approaches the center of the lake. This site is notable for its extensive seagrass coverage, which can be found consistently from the shore to depths of 8-10 meters, making it one of the few locations in the lake with such abundant seagrass.
