Queensland shore dives

Hi Everyone! My husband and I have recently moved to Boyne Island, Queensland (near Gladstone) from the United States and we are very excited about diving in Australia. However, we are still a ways away from Cairns and other large cities that offer trips out to the reef. So far we have been to Lady Musgrave and also did some shore dives in Bargara (near Bundaberg). Does anybody know of any other good shore diving spots in Queensland?

Meghan,

Unfortunately, there are very few shore diving sites in Queensland. Bargara is without doubt the best site. Handful of sites of Sunshine Coast, Brisbane and Gold Coast. Most of us Queensland divers only do boat dives. Best shoring sites are in Southern Australia.

The BendsThe Bends
Ask any scuba diver what is the one thing they fear most when diving and they will tell you it is the bends. However, if you get a group of divers together they will no doubt joke that '... we will probably all end up bent sooner or later!'. I myself often joked to friends and family that 'I'll probably just end up bent ...' and like most divers I used to think that it would never happen to me ... but it did. I got bent.
