About Rocky Bay
Rocky Bay is a sheltered boat dive that starts in a calm bay and follows a reef curve as it gradually deepens toward a mooring. The site suits newer divers who can handle a simple boat profile, but the real draw is slow macro hunting in a protected reef with lots of juvenile life tucked into the rock.

Key Hazards
Safety Notes
Start in the sheltered bay and keep an eye on passing dive boats and the rocky shoreline. The dive rewards slow buoyancy control around the reef and rock cracks.
Access Restrictions
Choose a water taxi or dive boat if you want the cleanest access; the rocky shore is less convenient for gear-heavy entries.
Legal Notes
Use the bay access that matches your operator plan and stay clear of boat lanes.
Local Intel For Rocky Bay
Community notes to help plan your visit.
Scuba
A sheltered bay entry leads to a shallow reef that gradually deepens toward a mooring beyond the marker; it is a good fit for slow reef observation and macro photography.
Freedive
Not a freedive-first site, but the calm shallows can work for very controlled shallow exploration.
Snorkel
Rocky Bay can work well for snorkelers in calm water, but the site is still best known as a macro-friendly scuba dive.
