Where Is Suzie's Bommie?
Suzie's Bommie Planning Details
Depth range, seasonality, and planning context.
Reported Depth
13m - 30m
Depth Note
The bommie tops out around 13 m and rises from surrounding sand around 30 m, so the range stays pinned to the pinnacle and its base.
Best Season
Through early December, when calm seas and clear visibility are more reliable.
Typical Conditions
Outer-reef pinnacle, clear water on calm days, and strong schooling life with larger animals possible when the current is right.
Safety & Access At Suzie's Bommie
Hazards, restrictions, and access requirements.
Key Hazards
Safety Notes
Treat Suzie's Bommie as a condition-sensitive outer-reef dive: choose calm windows, keep buoyancy tight, and stay alert for current around the pinnacle.
Access Restrictions
Boat access only; the dive depends on a workable sea state and an operator able to run the reef-wall approach.
Legal Notes
Follow local marine and resort rules, plus any day-of instructions tied to the outer barrier reef and boat operations.

Community notes to help plan your visit.
Scuba Diving
This is a scuba-first pinnacle dive where the payoff comes from timing, buoyancy, and patience around the reef top.
Freediving
Not a freedive-first site; the depth and outer-reef profile make scuba the practical choice.
Snorkeling
Snorkeling is not the main use case here because the main structure sits on a deeper outer-reef pinnacle.
