Bushranger's Bay - Snorkelling
Bushrangers Bay Aquatic Reserve -
Bushrangers Bay is an aquatic reserve located in Bass Point Reserve, just south of Shellharbour Village.
This is an excellent sheltered dive and snorkelling site, with an inner and outer bay. The three-hectare aquatic reserve protects abundant plant and sea life. Fishing or destroying marine life, including removing empty shells, is not permitted within the reserve.
The intertidal rock pools are home for many invertebrates. One of the most striking features within the reserve is a cliff shaped like an amphitheater. In 10 meters of water, the cliffs are six meters high and contain hundreds of small cavities, which are home to sea urchins and tropical fish.
