Wolf Rock
A volcanic rock reef off Double Island Point, a well-known Australian dive site famous for gathering grey nurse sharks, suited to experienced divers.
Wolf Rock is a group of volcanic rock pillars in the sea about 2 kilometers north of Double Island Point. It is considered one of the top dive sites on Australia's east coast. Endangered grey nurse sharks gather here year-round, and pregnant females arrive in summer. Manta rays, sea turtles, large groupers and humpback whales migrating in winter are also seen. The site has strong currents and big swells and usually requires an advanced open water certification and some diving experience. Divers travel from the dive shops in Rainbow Beach by speedboat, about 20 minutes each way. Trips are often cancelled in bad weather, so allow a spare day in your plans.
