Kelp Beds Drift

Kelp Bed Drift (OW) Depth 12 - 21m(40-70ft)

This drift is conducted on the flood tide over a Macrocysts kelp forest in Lonsdale Bight between Point Lonsdale and Queenscliff. This site also makes a great slack water dive. During the drift you will encounter large fronds of kelp with broken sandstone reef, often home to the Southern Rock Lobster and abalone. During the summer months, big schools of large Yellow Tail Kingfish can be seen.
