Bushrangers Bay Aquatic Reserve
Bushrangers Bay is a small embayment located at the eastern end of Bass Point approximately 5 kilometres south of Shellharbour on the NSW South Coast.
Bushrangers Bay was declared an Aquatic Reserve in May 1982. The bay is 3 hectares in size extending from the mean high water mark to the seabed on the outer boundary.
This bay is recognised as one of the best scuba diving and snorkelling locations along the NSW coastline.
The reserve is for the protection of marine plants and animals. Divers are requested to take care when touching soft corals as they break off easily.
Within the reserve you cannot fish or destroy marine life. You are not permitted to collect dead or alive marine organisms, this includes empty shells.
One of the most striking features with the Aquatic Reserve is a cliff shaped like an amphitheatre in 10 metres of water, the cliffs extends upwards for 6 metres and contains hundreds of small cavities which are home to sea urchins and tropical fish.
