Tourist attractions

Description

Wanneroo Reef, north-west of Hillarys Boat Harbour, consists of a main reef about 90 metres long, with two lumps at the northern end.

The maximum depth around Wanneroo Reef is six metres, with the reef flat being exposed.

If there are onshore winds, start on the eastern side, beginning at the north-eastern lump. Marine life is similar to the main reef, with a variety of anemones and gorgonian corals.

The best diving is on the eastern side of the main reef, especially at the northeastern end, where some spectacular caverns can be found. This area provides the most diverse array of marine life.
