Swansea bridge dive

All photos in this post are property of and thanks to Newcastle Dive Centre. Not only are the staff great but all the members of the club seem super friendly too. I would definitely recommend a dive with these guys, or joining the club like we did!

Yesterday we did a dive at the Swansea Bridge, about 20mins South of us. The bridge is over an inlet to Lake Macquarie and it is teaming with life! There was an unbelievable amount of fish down there. Every time Brandon hit me to point something out I immediately thought "shark"!

Yacaaba Walking track/ Mount Yakaba

This afternoon we did a quick dash to Hawks Nest to do the Yacaaba walk. You will find it on google maps by searching Mount Yakaba. You certainly won't find any official information on it by searching that name though. Since I found a few people arguing over the name on the internet I decided I will call it what the green sign did.

Itinerary
