Dive Centre Bondi
World famous Bondi Beach is no doubt a remarkable surfing & swimming destination, however, one of the most fascinating aspects of Bondi and its best kept secret is the rocky northern point. Its diverse and interesting underwater marine life and topography is matched only by the abundance of schooling fish that inhabit its swim throughs, overhangs and caves. Known as Ben Buckler Point it has a monolithic square rock, perched on the sea level platform which manifested itself there decades ago after a severe storm. It is refereed to as Mermaid Rock and is often used as a reference to locate many of the dive sites in the area.

Introductory Rust Diving on the Wreck of the Malabar
-
by Simon
- Around 7:00am on Thursday, April 2, 1931, a dense fog suddenly rolled into Long Bay, obscuring the northern headland. On the bridge of MV Malabar, en-route from Melbourne to Sydney, Captain George Leslie recognised the danger and ordered 5 degrees rudder to steer the ship seaward to pass further offshore than his original plan of half a mile.

Seaslugs - Part II. Sidegill slugs and Sap-sucking slugs
- In this article I will introduce you to the next two in hierarchical sequence. Seaslugs are indeed fascinating creatures and are a favorite for many photographers. They do not move about very quickly at all, which is a characteristic that makes them easy subjects to shoot. Often it is not the case of 'the one that got away', but the case of 'Oh no! I have run out of film again!'.
