Event information
This event is full.
Wolf Rock is one of Australia's best sites to see Grey Nurse Sharks. Mantas, Leopard Sharks, Eagle Rays and more can also be often seen there, plus eels, nudibranch, octopus and a host of other creatures, however the main feature is the Grey Nurse, which are there year-round.
The plan is to drive up to Rainbow Beach on Friday, Dive Saturday & Sunday, drive home Monday. Camping will be at Freshwater Camp Area, Cooloola, or you may choose to stay at Rainbow Beach and drive to the launch point each day.
Details:
Dates: Friday 7th of November - Monday 10th November
Location: Double Island Point
Diving: Wolf Rock can reach depths of up to 32m. We remind all Divers that they should stay within the limits of their certifications and comfort level. There is plenty of life to see on the rock at every depth.
- BYO all dive gear including tanks & weights
In the morning Saturday & Sunday, we will drive around to the other side of Double Island Point where we can set up on the beach for the day and launch the club boat. Those who want it, usually get two dives a day, however this will depend on numbers and will be sorted out closer to the time. Optimally Diver 1 will head out for 3 or 4 single dives per day.
Camping: You need to book your own camping. (Cost is $7.50 per person, per night)
- Select Freshwater Camping Area. Follow the links from:Queensland National Parks Booking Service | Department of the Environment, Tourism, Science and Innovation, Queensland - Camping
- As of today (26/08/2025) there are 21 camp sites and 28 trailer sites available.
- $2 Coin opperated showers (so bring some change if you want hot water!)
- BYO Everything including food, water, all camping equipment.
Transport: To get to the camp ground and dive site, you need a 4WD. If you don't have a 4WD, but are keen, there are club members who have 4WDs, and you may be able to organise to travel with them.
* You will need a Vehicle permit to drive up the beach. Booking the permit at the same time as your camp booking is the easiest (so that you don't forget).
* If you are staying at Rainbow Beach you will also need a vehicle permit, as you will be travelling to the dive site either via the inland/freshwater track, or on the beach (depending on beach conditions).
Follow the link above to book your vehicle permit.
Costs:
- Accommodation (either Camping or at Rainbow Beach)
- Fuel: We will spilt the cost spent on fuel to cover towing the boat/compressor up from Brisbane (to be negiotiated with towers), driving the boat to the dive sites and running the compressor.
- Dive Tickets: You will require one dive ticket for each dive you do, please bring them with you.
Tide Times: (from Noosa Heads)
