Lighthouse Bommie

For most of the year Lighthouse Bommie is a lovely Ribbon Reef tower: turtles wedged into ledges, olive sea snakes threading the coral, rays passing over the sand. In June and July it becomes something stranger. Dwarf minke whales seek out the moored boats here, and under the marine park's encounter rules divers hang on surface lines while the whales choose the distance, often closing to a few meters and staying for hours. No one baits or pursues them; the initiative is entirely the animals', which is what makes the experience so unusual in wildlife diving.

您此行的高光时刻: Dwarf minke whale encounters in June-July, olive sea snakes, resident turtles, easy pinnacle profile

地形地貌: Narrow pinnacle off Ribbon Reef No. 10 rising from about 30 m

水流: Generally forgiving; minke encounters happen on lines and at the surface where current matters little.

危险因素: Excitement management around large whales; hold the line and let them come.

许可证与规定: In-water minke encounters are legal only with endorsed operators following the approach code.

高氧（Nitrox）: 在此值得使用：这些潜点的深度范围内，富氧空气（nitrox）能有效延长免减压停留时间，前提是您已接受相关培训。
