Whale Rock is likely named for the shape of a rock formation rather than a predictable whale encounter. It has a strong topographic character, with boulders or a large reef structure creating the main visual feature.
What to see
Rock formations, reef fish, snappers, jacks, moray eels, octopus, rays, lionfish, sponges, and hard corals may be seen.
When To Go Diving
Best from November to April for warm water and clear conditions. Winter diving is possible, but some sites may be affected by wind and swell.
