Stunning Scuba Diving at Rottnest Island

This video showcases the stunning marine life and underwater scenery at Rottnest Island, as seen on 17th January 2008 on a scuba diving charter trip with Perth Diving Academy. Footage includes buff bream, wobbegong shark, massive bull stingrays, western blue devil, juvenile jewfish, talma, scalyfin being cleaned, a crayfish being bagged, the skipper freediving and much more. I'm so glad that I live in Perth where such stunning scuba diving is so close to home!

wow, you've got a huge number of dives under your belt! i'm guessing most of them woulda been around WA. come across any bull sharks & stuff? i've had a license for 10 years, which i haven't used in just as long. i know the dives here should be great but eeeek... not too trusting of sharkies.

Thanks for watching :) Sharks are such a rare sight nowadays that I'm heading off to Port Lincoln in South Australia next month to cage dive with Great Whites. So stay tuned! Cheers, Mal

West Patch is a great dive site!

I've been divung there in September.

Did you see the Grey Nurse Sharks in the tunnel?

Thanks for watching :) Great to hear that you had the chance to dive it recently. The last time I saw a GN shark at Rotto was 18 months ago ... it's a rare sight and a real priviledge. Cheers, Mal
