The Steps

The Steps in Sydney is a fantastic dive site, particularly for those eager to spot weedy seadragons. This location is a favorite among divers due to its stunning sponge gardens. Here, you are likely to encounter weedy seadragons camouflaging as kelp, along with marine life such as bream, old wives, luderick, blue gropers, and giant cuttlefish.

For the best experience, dive at The Steps during slack or incoming tide. Once submerged, descend and head north towards the sandy line, then turn east to venture out of the bay. Be sure to inspect the kelp for sea life.
