Best scuba diving locations in Australia? For 7 days diving. I fly in to

[ZED]

Perth. Please suggest sites/plan? I have 7-9 days after a conference in Australia (Perth) in which I would like to do some Scuba diving in October 2007. I need to decide whether I fly out of Perth (perhaps try diving west coast, (?Ningaloo, ?Broome..) and fly out of Perth - or get an internal flight and fly out of another major airport (Quantas) and go for diving elsewhere (?Cairns, ?Queensland). Any advice would be brilliant. Thanks!

Ningaloo Reef.































It is one of the many beauties of Western Australia.

Ningaloo if you can get there ( pisses on the GBR IMHO ). Rotnest has good
diving ( don't fall off the ferry ) as does the SW corner. Remember
Australia is a bloody big country so you can't just nip over to the GBR for
a quick dive. If you are into tech/cave diving there are some great sites
apparently in WA, not my cup of tea so I have only heard about them

Can't comment on the Ningaloo yet as I won't be diving there until July (six
day trip)
but:-

http://www.diveshed.com.au/index.php
Have a look at the Busselton Jetty dive 10 minutes from their pier. This is
close to where I live.
The wreck dive is good, too, from all reports but I haven't done it.

I learnt to dive with these guys in 1980 - the dive boat is good. They do
Rottnest (aka Rotto) superbly, which is where I did most of my early dive
years.

Doing a Perth (ex HMAS) dive with these people in June so can't yet comment
on the site but a friend raves about it (we are doing the June dive with her
as she lives in the town)

Ningaloo would be a must, but given that you're already in WA, you could add
any of the others
Hoges in WA
