The Dive:

Shiprock is dived at slack tide. It is located just inside Port Hacking River and include all of the usual things PLUS a bubble cave. It is variously described as being revered, excellent , famed, and one enough to amaze a one,  Mr Michael McFadyen of St George Scube Club fame. Check the links for testamonials.
