This dive site is a high-octane drift dive through a channel in the Ningaloo Reef. Divers are swept along by a strong current, observing large aggregations of grey nurse sharks, potato cod, and vast schools of fish. The sheer density of marine life makes this one of Australia's premier advanced dives.
