Dive site:
Tangalooma wrecks
Histroy:
Located just north of the Tangalooma Island Resort are the Tangalooma Wrecks, a cluster of ships scuttled by the Queensland Government between 1963 and 1984 to provide safe anchorage spot for recreational boat owners on the eastern side of Moreton Bay.
Coral is now starting to form in and around the wrecks, providing a haven for over 100 species of fish and sometimes even dolphins, wobbegongs and dugongs.
A total of 15 vessels were sunk - five in 1963; five in the 1970's; and a further five in the 1980's.

Wow - crazy to see so many wrecks put together to help form a barrier. Very cool! That current reminds me of the ones we deal with here in the river.
It is a really cool idea and was fun to dive. Yeah currents are always fun 😆 what is the river you dive on?
@@BlueHorizonDiving I dive along the St. Clair River in Michigan. Some dives can be much more challenging than others. Current and freighters can push you around a bit! 😆
@@lydialeigh4 I remember it was Michigan, just wasn't sure what rivers. Love the freighters pushing you about, do you really feel them coming over?
@@BlueHorizonDiving You hear them well before you feel them - and they are loud under water. Some say it sounds like a heart beat. I say it’s more like a slow drum beat. Now I think its cool to hear them coming, but the first few times were a little unnerving. I would crawl closer to the sea wall because it sounded like they were going to pass right over me. 😳😄 Dug up a bottle from the mid 1800’s there too. If you check out Marine City Webcam, you’ll be able to see one of the places along the river where we jump in. Just a few feet from the lighthouse! 🤙
That is insane and so cool. A bottle from mid 1880's WOW 🤩
I've learned to enjoy those walks of shame. Black sheep unite! Wow awesome wrecks.
Hahaha and the entire Sunreef cree too that day 😆
Very cool
Was a fun day 🤗
Nice video indeed guys. Currents are certainly no joke! Fought my fair share just last month too…
Oh yeah you can get some serious currents. Remember Maldives had some wicked currents.
Good one!😀
Was a fun staff day out
Thanks for another great video. Could you guy make a video on what gear you are using and why it's your favorite? Happy diving!
Thank k you. Yeah, we can do that. Our packing video for scuba trips has all over gear and we talk about it a bit.
@@BlueHorizonDiving Oh thanks. I'll check it out. Have a good day 👌
Hahaha! Everyone gets caught out by the current around the wrecks! It’s so deceiving. You can only really dive or snorkel on the slack tide if you want to make it back to your boat to the beach.
Hahaha, true. We knew the current would be flowing due to tide times there but was surprised that it can have a decent strength compared to other areas nearby.
I was snorkelling there 10 years ago and didn't notice any current at all and I swam a long distance back to the boat with 5year old on my back so I can't say it was a rough area what so ever.
