Depth: 1 m (3.28 ft) to 6 m (20 ft)

Level: Open Water and beyond.

Sandringham Beach Reef is at the northern end of Sandringham Beach, just before you get to the Sandrigham Yacht Club, on the eastern side of Port Phillip. It's a sheltered site when north easterly winds blow.

Parking: You can find car parking spaces in Jetty Road. Parking is metered so make sure you get a ticket.

Head west out from the beach to the reef. Then meander along the reef and explore the undercuts on the western side. Take your time looking under the ledges.

There can be plenty of boat traffic, so tow a dive float with a dive flag.

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

Boon Wurrung / Bunurong country

Traditional Owners — This dive site is in the traditional Country of the Boon Wurrung / Bunurong people of the Kulin Nation. This truly ancient Country includes parts of Port Phillip, from the Werribee River in the north-west, down to Wilson's Promontory in the south-east, including the Mornington Peninsula, French Island and Phillip Island, plus Western Port. We wish to acknowledge the Boon Wurrung as Traditional Owners. We pay respect to their Ancestors and their Elders, past, present and emerging. We acknowledge Bunjil the Creator Spirit of this beautiful land, who travels as an eagle, and Waarn, who protects the waterways and travels as a crow, and thank them for continuing to watch over this Country today and beyond.

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.
