Eagle Rock Marine Sanctuary
Things to Do
On calm day, a snorkel around the rocks can be very rewarding. The Marine Sanctuary is also popular for recreational diving with a diverse range of fish species present.
Heritage
The area of the Marine Sanctuary is inter-related with Painkalac Creek, which is a highly significant cultural place for Aboriginal people. Eastwards of Painkalac Creek is soft sand, which Aboriginal groups believe indicate an extremely high possibility of burial sites.
Precautions
For your own safety, only undertake activities appropriate to your skills and abilities. Take all necessary precautions, be aware of changing conditions, and watch for potential hazards, such as rips. A number of Victorian marine animals are potentially harmful if not treated with respect and care, so ensure that you familiarise yourself with these species. Sunburn and hypothermia are also potentially harmful but easily avoided.
SCUBA diving is a potentially high-risk activity and should only be undertaken by appropriately qualified people that have completed recognised training and certification. Victoria's cool water environments can be extremely challenging to those used to diving in warmer waters so ensure that local knowledge is sought before undertaking a dive in a new location. Dive charter operators can provide some of the best advice on diving in Victoria.
