Webbing
We sell webbing specifically for use in marine diving applications. Our webbing is rot-proof, waterproof, and resistant to mould, mildew and UV.
If purchasing 50 mm webbing for a backplate continuous harness, purchase 4 metres. If you will also be making your own crotch strap, then purchase an extra 2 metres of 50 mm or 25 mm webbing.
Applications:
The 50 mm (2 inch) Nylon webbing is the typical thickness, well suited for use in weights belts, backplate harness rigging and general-purpose diving applications.
The 25 mm (1 inch) Nylon webbing is used for various straps.
Sold by the metre. Can be trimmed and sold in the exact required length if specified. By default orders up to 15 metres are shipped as one continuous piece.

Sponge Hollows, by Jane Headley.
Sponge Garden Drift takes you over massive sponge gardens and shallow reefs inside Port Phillip. It's the colours of the sponges that make this dive stunning. As in any drift dive, the terrain is always changing and you originally start drifting over an area of shallow reefs then over the sponge gardens and finally over larger reefs and Bommies.
The fish life on these dives varies just as much as the terrain and of course, there is always the chance of coming across old bottles and other collectable artefacts.
Wathaurong (Wadda-Warrung) country
Traditional Owners — This dive site is in the traditional Country of the Wathaurong (Wadda-Warrung) people of the Kulin Nation. This truly ancient Country includes the coastline of Port Phillip, from the Werribee River in the north-east, the Bellarine Peninsula, and down to Cape Otway in the south-west. We wish to acknowledge the Wathaurong 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.
