dive sites
James Cook University is situated adjacent to the Great Barrier Reef National Park, one of the natural wonders of the world. It is home to an extremely diverse array of marine life, from tiny nudibranchs to large pelagics such as humpback whales. Colourful and vibrant coral reefs are located close to our shores.
By far and away the most popular and best known dive site within our reach is the wreck of the SS Yongala, however the local reefs also support an abundance of marine life and you can never predict what you're going to see where. That's all part of the lure of diving!
