Many people immediately associate diving in Australia with the Great Barrer Reef but it worth remembering that Western Australia has tropical waters and coral reefs as well. In fact at Ningaloo the fringing reef is easily accessible by snorkelling. There is also the attraction of seeing whale sharks at certain times of the year. Diving is carried out all along the west coast and the warm Leeuwin current carries down fish and invertebrates to latitudes not normally associated with these species. Excellent diving can be had off Rottnest Island near Perth and further south the submarine pilings of Busselton Jetty are a riot of colour. In the clear waters at Dunsborough one can dive the Swan a naval vessel sunk intentionally for divers to enjoy.
