Parcel de Torres: offshore pinnacles and big-fish shelter.
Parcel de Torres is a long offshore run with small groups, so local boat support is the normal access path.
Parcel de Torres is an offshore pinnacle dive off the Torres coast with soft coral on rock towers, narrow trenches, and crevices that shelter bigger fish. It is a boat trip rather than a casual shore dive, and it rewards divers who are comfortable with deeper profiles and moving water.
Conservative baseline from public research. No community dives logged yet.
Depth range, seasonality, and planning context.
Reported Depth
23m - 33m
Depth Note
The listing starts around 23 m and caps at 33 m, while the operator page uses a 23-30 m band, so 33 m is the conservative max.
Best Season
Summer and the calmer weather windows between winter fronts are usually the safest boat window.
Typical Conditions
Offshore pinnacle diving with soft coral over rock towers, narrow trenches, and visibility that can be good in the shallows but variable deeper down.
Site conditions, restrictions, and access requirements.
Site Conditions
Safety Notes
Watch the fishing gear, keep buoyancy tight on the pinnacles, and plan the dive with the boat crew because the parcel sits far offshore.
Access Restrictions
Boat-only offshore access with limited group size and no on-site infrastructure; fishing gear can be present over the parcel.
Legal Notes
Keep clear of fishing nets and lines and follow the boat crew's signaling plan because the parcel sits in active fishing grounds.
