Scuba Dive | Popes Eye 0-12m (Queenscliff)

Pope's Eye is a man made basalt rock annulus. It is the foundation of what was to be an Island Fort built in the 1880's.

This horseshoe shaped artificial reef is now a Marine Reserve and the home of many species of fish, invertebrates and algae, including large fronds of macro cysts kelp. The inside of Pope's Eye provides a safe anchorage in 2 meters of water while outside, the rock wall extends to a depth of 12 metes. While the best time to dive Pope's Eye is on the start of the ebb tide, it provides almost all weather, all current diving.

You'll be sure to spot some Australian Fur Seals here too!!
