Depth: 2 m (6.56 ft) to 8 m (26 ft)

Level: Open Water and beyond.

Marina Cove, also known as Linley Point South, is near Mornington in Port Phillip. It features a boulder strewn sea floor which deepens gradually from 2 to 8 metres heading out from the shore. Small fish life and crustaceans.

Marina Cove is south of the Fisherman's Beach Boat ramp at Linley Point, accessible from a track leading from the Esplanade opposite King George Avenue. We've called this site Marina Cove after the reference to it by Ian Lewis in "Shore Dives of Victoria". Some other sources refer to Marina Cove as being further south, just north of Coral Cove. Other references have a Marina Cove at Dromana.

Make sure you're careful of boat and PWC (jet ski) traffic operating from the Fisherman's Beach boat ramp. Take a float and dive flag with you. There are sometimes a few fisherman on the point, so keep in mind their lines. You may want to take a dive knife and/or line cutter just in case.

See WillyWeather (Fishermans Beach) as a guide for the tide times and the height of the tide.

DISCLAIMER: No claim is made by The Scuba Doctor as to the accuracy of the dive site coordinates listed here. Should anyone decide to use these GPS marks to locate and dive on a site, they do so entirely at their own risk. Always verify against other sources.

The marks come from numerous sources including commercial operators, independent dive clubs, reference works, and active divers. Some are known to be accurate, while others may not be. Some GPS marks may even have come from maps using the AGD66 datum, and thus may need be converted to the WGS84 datum. To distinguish between the possible accuracy of the dive site marks, we've tried to give each mark a source of GPS, Google Earth, or unknown.
