Underwater Perth

A guide to snorkelling and diving. Perth, Western Australia.

Shipwrecks of the Swan River

The Swan River is full of shipwrecks, at last count more than 30. This week is the Mayfield and City of Perth wrecks to snorkel, and Blackwall Reach to dive.

Creatures

Sea creatures are everywhere, at every spot and in all conditions. If you're starting out, Mettam's Pool is a great snorkel, and Ammo Jetty is where you can find the better-camouflaged creatures such as octopuses and sea horses.

Beasts

Shark Cave off Rottnest Island, and the Australian sea lions of Carnac Island.
