I am happy to say that i have just gotten a really sweet job up on Hamilton Island which is located in the Great Barrier Reef!! I will be starting up there in a couple of weeks so i will organize my stuff and head off Its going to be pretty hard not to have a good dive up there i reckon for anyone interested this is the website for the dive center i will be working for http://www.h2osportz.com.au
So what can i say but i am so lucky and am loving the whale season they a fantastic animals!! No a bad way to start off a dive i say.... Off to the dive lodge friday morning to help alittle with an open water course and the best part take a customer in fact i can say friend now for a double dive for the day We decide just on the merimbula wharf quite a nice easy dive and there is a fare but to see there. I park my car and we get out i notice quite a few people staring out to the sea on the wharf not really to worried but as alway i want to no whats going on so i had up there and just off the wharf are a few humpback whale doing there thing i was so excited all i was thinking was i would love to see tese guys under the water while diving!! We raced back done geared up and a way we went but before long the whales was a fare distance from the actually dive site so i had to settle with listening to them communicating under water it was a buzz hearing them. After about 25mins cruising around out we hopped to change over tanks and a short rest to jump in for the second dive. This time it was a good fun dive i must say apart from the part where i got stung across the face with a jelly fish  i am not sure the type of jelly they were but they are not so harmful as the others they sting but its not unbearable so it was all good and well i had to continue my dive and put up with the stinging down my face. Was so funny were were checking stuff out and feeding the big blue groupers when we came across a brand new fishing rod under the water was so funny. All in all an awesome day

This is a rather nice dive gets its name as it is located at the chip mill wharf in Eden. Good dive for everyone heaps of cool stuff to see the dive is basically located around the wharf pilons around as well as the reef and weed patches surrounding. Around the pilons and weed u will find the weedy sea dragons what great creatures these are they are amazing. Depth is quite shallow deepest being 15-16m Its was awesome i saw heaps of cool dragons, puffers,cuttlefish, groupers,urchins,ananimones, wrass, parrot fish etc Great dive its a must also
Not a bad dive this i really enjoyed it .... was my first dive here beleive it or not and its one of our main dives here in my area, but for what ever reason i have not done it yet in all the years i have been diving is crazy. What can i say the sea cave quiet a nice dive just of the coast at eden situated at Leatherjacket
Point juts out a little bit from the coastline. Just a few metres off the point
there is a bombora that comes up from more than 20 metres to less than 4 metres.
as you descend you will see a wall
that drops from 6 metres down to 17 metres or so. This wall runs in a
north-south direction before turning to the east and then back to the south. At
the corner where the wall first changes direction, there is what appears to be
at first a large overhang. This is in fact here the cave entrance is its very cool. You can actually swim right the way through this cave but it tappers out and gets a little tight towards the other end.
