Gouldens Sinkhole (also known as Gouldens Waterhole) is a well known cavern rated site in Mount Gambier is frequently used for training for divers wishing to gain Cave Diving Association of Australia (CDAA) accreditation. It is an interesting site that divers can explore properly within a couple of dives but often choose to return to when fine tuning their skills. Full of numerous objects to secure guideline too and easy to silt out.

The Star of Greece is a well known historic ship wreck at Port Willunga, South Australia. It's a good little dive just 200 metres swim from the shore. The wreckage is broken up and spread over a large area. In low tide part of it sticks above the water. The history of how the ship came to be wrecked and the numerous fatalities that resulted can be read about at the South Australian Maritime Museum. Some parts of the ship that were salvaged can also be seen there. Overlooking the bay is the Star of Greece Restaurant which is named after the ship which is worth a visit too.

Second Valley is about an hour and a half drive south of the Adelaide CBD. It's quite a well known location for fishing and scuba diving. When I used to be a diving instructor we used to use it for training as it's easy to get in and out and do skills close to the jetty. However on a flat dive you can also explore a series of shallow water filled caverns to the south along the coast. They are pretty exposed so this is not the place to go when there is any sort of swell but it can be a really interesting dive. I thought it would also make a pretty good site for freediving so one day I went and explored them without the tank. This was a few years ago and was one of my earlier videos that I've re-edited for this channel.

I made this back in 2013. It was the first freediving video I produced. It is mainly done around the end of the Port Noarlunga Jetty. As with any old video there are definately a few things I'd do differently now however there are a few shots that still hold up to some of my more recent videos. This jetty featured on one of the other videos on this channel as seen from the air. This time it's underwater.

The Eyre Peninsula in South Australia is a place we've visited a number of times. In 2014 we had the opportunity to participate in a Baird Bay Ocean Eco Experience to swim with the dolphins and sea lions. The staff are well informed and friendly and will make your tour one you won't forget. A fantastic experience that we highly recommend.

This is one of our earlier videos that we made back in 2014. It features Piccaninnie and Ewens Ponds which are both located in Mount Gambier, South Australia. Both are stunning freshwater sites which can be snorkelled or scuba dived, although with Piccaninnie Ponds you require the appropriate cave diving qualifications due to the overhead environments. I have videos on our other channel 'Endurance Swimmer Australia' scuba diving both sites. For this video I explored some of the areas with direct access to the surface by freediving.

Basin Lake is a small perched freshwater lake on Fraser Island in Queensland, Australia. It can be reached via a few different hiking tracks but the one that is used the most goes from Central Station via Wanggoolba Creek and is about a 5.5 km return trip. With the close proximity of the thick vegitation the lake is reasonably protected from the wind making it an attractive secluded location that is not visited as much as many of the other lakes in the area.

Lake Wabby is a well known lake on Fraser Island. It's relatively small and is getting gradually consumed by the Hammerstone Sand Blow. At 12 meters it is the deepest lake on the island and unlike most of the others is full of aquatic life, particularly large catfish. There are 2 hiking tracks, one from the beach about 4.3 km north of Eurong which is 2.4 km long and the other is a shorter one from a carpark off Cornwell's Break Road which is 2.4 km long. This is the later. It includes a lookout with spectacular views.

The St Kilda Mangrove Trail is a well known boardwalk built on the coast of this seaside suburb in South Australia (not to be confused with the suburb in Victoria with the same name). St Kilda itself was built on what is a reclaimed part of the Barker Inlet. It was once home to just fishermen but is now well known for an adventure playground and a tramway museum. There is a large area of mangrove swamp in the tidal zone and in the mid 1980's a boardwalk trail was built through the mangroves to be used by the public to get closer to the environment without impacting upon it.

One of the most well known cave diving sites in Mount Gambier is Allendale Cave which is located in the middle of a road! Attempts were made in the early days to fill what was thought to be a large hole in order to build the road over it but later on when it was established that it was actually a water filled cave of significant size this futile process was stopped in favour of building one lane either side. It's must have been an interesting site to behold in the early days by locals but now watching fully equipped divers waiting for a gap in the traffic before crossing in full diving gear and descending down the steep entrance slope is common place. What awaits is a stunningly clear dive site. The small entrance lake leads to a steep slope and eventually a large cavernous chamber down the bottom. There are also some tighter areas to explore for the more adventurous.

Moonta Bay is located on the Yorke Peninsula in South Australia. The area was well known for copper mining and you can visit some of the historic mining sites on the tourist railway which departs from the platform adjacent to the Moonta Mines Museum. The area is sometimes referred to as 'Little Cornwall' and it is probably little wonder that the locals claim that they make some of the best cornish pasties. The area is popular with locals and the jetties are popular with fishermen and scuba divers. A DJI Spark drone was used to capture the footage of the area including Moonta and Port Hughes jetties, the coastline of Moonta Bay, the mangroves approaching the Bird Islands and the Moonta Mines Tourist Railway.

Port Noarlunga in South Australia is located south of the Adelaide CBD and as the name suggests, was originally built as a sea port. It's now primarily a destination for holidays and weekend trips. Probably the most notable feature is a 1.6 kilometer long reef that is partly exposed (particularly at low tide) that runs perpendicular to the shore. There is also a long jetty that goes right up to the reef which is popular with fishermen and also scuba divers that use it to provide a method of entering and leaving the water close to the reef.
