Nurse Rock Double Dive

From AUD $159.00
  • Duration: 5 Hours
  • Location: Mooloolaba, QLD
This is beautiful site for divers to explore what the Sunshine Coast reefs have to offer. Those new to diving may also explore this site, as we can also take divers in training (Open Water student dives 3 and 4).


Topography of the site features lovely boulders at the bottom of this site, which ranges from 14 to 22 metres deep, you may also choose to explore the small swim-throughs at this site.

As the name suggests, this is the site to see Grey Nurse sharks in the winter months. You may also encounter large schools of surgeon fish, turtles, rays, cuttlefish, eels and tropical reef fish. Throughout the cooler months, this site is a perfect spot to keep your eyes out for the placid and beautiful grey nurse sharks that use it as a transitional home.

Check in at Sunreef starts at the time outlined on your confirmation email or text. When you arrive, we will see you at our check in desk and ensure that your gear is organized. If you bring your own gear, our crew can carry it down to the dock and set it up for you, or if you prefer you will be free to do it yourself. If we know you are hiring gear, everything will be organized for you prior to check in.

On departure to the Local Reefs, our trained crew will provide a thorough briefing for all our divers about the sites we will visit and will answer any questions you may have about it. Once the boat exits the calm waters of the Mooloolaba River system, it is around a 15 minute ride to the site. The vessel will be moored and our crew will help you set up to get in the water.

Each dive is planned to last for either 50 minutes or will end to have you on the surface with 50 bar (whichever one comes first).

Every dive is different depending on the conditions that day and time.

Between dives, we will come up for a surface interval where you are provided snacks and water. Feel free to bring along your own snacks if you have allergies or would like more substantial food.

The divers then return to the shop, where we will debrief and help you log your dives. While this is happening we will unload the vessel and wash all your gear for you if you so wish.
