Detalles de planificación de Baby Shark Point
Rango de profundidad, temporada y contexto para planificar.
Profundidad reportada
3m - 12m
Nota de profundidad
Public site descriptions consistently place the sandy approach around 3 m before the reef, with most profiles staying shallow and reaching about 12 m at the deeper edge.
Mejor temporada
Baby Shark Point is usually best from March to October, with the clearest and most reliable conditions often reported from mid-year into early September. Northeast monsoon months can disrupt access and many island operations scale back or close.
Condiciones habituales
Expect a shallow sandy-to-reef layout with staghorn coral, patch reef, and visibility that often sits around the high single digits rather than full blue-water clarity. Ordinary conditions are usually easy, but the exposed south-coast position can pick up surface chop and light surge.
Seguridad y acceso en Baby Shark Point
Hazards, restrictions, and access requirements.
Key Hazards
Safety Notes
Keep clear of the boat passage and expect the shallow outer reef to feel less comfortable when surface chop builds. Juvenile blacktip reef sharks are a key attraction here, so maintain distance and avoid crowding or chasing them.
Access Restrictions
Access is weather dependent and operators may skip the site in rougher south-coast sea state. Snorkelers should stay out of the boat passage area used by island transfer and tour traffic.
Legal Notes
Baby Shark Point sits in marine park waters where conservation fees apply and fishing, coral damage, collecting marine life, and anchoring on reef are restricted.
