North Stradbroke Island Day Dive Trip
Double Boat Dive with Manta Lodge | Ex Cleveland via Water Taxi
If you haven’t been diving around North Stradbroke Island then you have missed out on the best dive sites our area has to offer. Famous for its annual Manta Ray and Grey Nurse Shark migration, all sites are situated around large exposed and unexposed rocks and reefs around Point Lookout. Visibility is good all year around.
The most popular sites are Flat Rock, Shag Rock and Manta Bommie. Refer to our dive site page for more detailed information about dive sites.
Manta Ray Season runs from about October to May each year and there is no better place to dive with these amazing creatures.
Grey Nurse Shark Season runs from about May until October each year with Shark Alley being a well know breading ground.
Manta Lodge & Scuba Centre operates 2 custom built semi-rigid NAIAD inflatable dive boats, launched from the beach. All sites are only a 10-15 minute boat ride away. Manta Lodge operates a premium dive centre with first class facilities including showers, secure lockers, Nitrox, dive shop as well as professional and friendly staff.
Come and join us for an amazing day.
