Description

Fairy Bower is a beginner-friendly shore dive in Manly, one of Sydney's most accessible and popular dive sites. This sheltered rocky reef at 8 meters depth sits within a marine reserve, resulting in exceptionally tame and abundant marine life. The site is famous for its friendly blue groper, giant cuttlefish, seahorses, and Port Jackson sharks during winter. Easy shore access, shallow depth, and calm conditions make it perfect for beginners, courses, and night dives.
