The Flat Rock dive site is a rocky island in Brisbane, Australia that is surrounded by coral reefs. This site is isolated from Stradbroke Island, which makes it a cozy and remarkable place for divers and tourists. Plenty of small, tropical fish can be found in a shallow area called the Nursery. Schools of sharks are common in a deeper area called Shark Gutters or Shark Alley. The average depth is 25m/82ft.
