Want to dive one of the Top 5 Wreck Dives in the world?

Then let us introduce you to the S.S. Yongala Wreck! Situated in the World
Heritage listed Great Barrier Reef Marine
Park, it is the
only large reef structure in the region , drawing a huge variety of marine
life earning infamy as Australia’s BEST dive site. Everything on this wreck is
big – Big Fish, Big Schools, BIG ADRENALIN!!

The 110m S.S. Yongala sank during a cyclone on March 23rd 1911, with the loss
of all 122 people aboard. It was not until 1958 that the wreck was first dived
and due to its remote location it has remained mostly untouched. The wreck
begins 15m below the surface and extends to 29m. Protected under the Historic
Shipwreck Act (1976), the artifacts, marine life and variety of corals that
cover the wreck are second to none, Red Bull names it the best wreck for sea
life.

Often seen are Turtles, Sea Snakes, Giant Trevally, Queensland Gropers, Eagle
Rays, Manta Rays, Sharks, thousands of Tropical fish and in the cooler months,
even Humpback Whales. Diving the Yongala is a bucket list trip no scuba diver
should miss!

The opportunity to site whales on their annual journey to warmer waters on our
Great Barrier Reef tour during whale season. The humpback whales enjoy putting
on a show for customers with tail slapping, pectoral fin waves and sometimes -
full breaching!! WOW!
