You will be amazed the variety of Marine life! A mixture of fish from the tropics and sub-tropical varieties as well. At the Solitary Islands Marine Park the water is usually much cleaner and warmer because of the East Australian Current. The Solitary Islands Marine Park is in a sanctuary zone, and is teeming with life! Join us for a double-dive, and see what there is to see at the Solitary Islands Marine Park!

A well organised, skilled and motivated crew. Good equipment and a lot care taken with divers. My first experience diving was large sharks .... great. A special event with the local sanctuary releasing some young turtles out past SSI.

This was my second trip with the team at Jetty Dive and I will be returning for a third as soon as I can. Today we got to see heaps of Grey Nurse Sharks, Leopard Sharks and massive Marble Rays. Well organised from start to finish, knowledgeable and friendly Divemasters providing lots of information about each dive site. Can’t wait to get back. Thanks again guys.

We had such a magical and memorable day of diving at North Solitary Island with the Jetty Dive crew. We were hoping to spot a Leopard shark, but were treated to a sea safari of seven! The visibility was out of this world - way better than the Maldives. Ash was an outstanding guide and is to be commended on his obvious diving passion, as well as his ability to spot an Angel fish transitioning into adulthood. We were so privileged to experience this! This was well worth the trek from Adelaide and we wholeheartedly recommend diving with the Jetty Dive Team. They are second to none!

The dive team at Jetty Dive are expertly proficient, thorough, courteous with every customer. I have dived with them so many times, the team have become friends. I would highly recommend diving with Jetty Dive when travelling to Coffs Harbour south Solitary Island is a rare jewel to dive with large aggregations of Grey Nurse Sharks, turtles, coral, butterflyfish. A great mix of tropical and temperate water makes South Sokitary Island a premier dive spot Coudos to Jetty Dive Stellar team

I completed my open water dive with Jetty Dive. Such an awesome team, everyone was so helpful and supportive. Equipment was great. The boat ride out to the dive site was safe and very comfortable on Mega Wild. So much to see under the water! One of my favs were the grey nurse sharks!! Big thanks to Teagan and Lindsay for keeping a close eye on me!

Completed our Open Water Diver course while having a great weekend diving at South Solitary Island. Plenty of fish, good vis, a really cool place to dive and no shortage of whales this time of year. Big thanks to the team from Jetty Dive Centre and particularly Teagan. Looking forward to more.
