Dive Outer Castle is a series of large boulders surrounding a very large boulder which breaks the surface at low tide (known as Outer Castle). There are lots of swimthroughs at this dive site, with the largest being below Outer Castle Rock itself. A really beautiful dive and definitely one of our favorites. Lots of red bait, feather stars, colourful sea urchins, sea anemones, starfish, brittle stars and nudibranchs including gasflame and frilled nudibranchs. We have spotted yellowtail here as well as gully sharks, large rays, electric rays and many big fish such as Janbruin, Red Roman and Butterfish (Twotone Fingerfin) in the main swim through.
