With an abundance of underwater activities to enjoy, NSW is home to some of the best snorkelling and world-renowned dive sites in Australia. This includes Cook Island at Tweed Heads, home to a monumental amount of turtles and clownfish, and Julian Rocks at Byron Bay, where you can find many turtles, enormous rays and manta rays, and friendly leopard sharks are particularly special.

In Sydney, Shelly Beach is home to octopus, eagle rays and the giant cuttlefish - the only place in the world to see these animals is in southern parts of Australia. Kurnell has one of the largest populations of weedy sea dragons in the world (which are also only found in southern Australia). Montague Island is one of the best places to see seals in Australia, as well as whales, dolphins and NSW's largest population of little penguins.
