About Grey Ghost

A wreck dive. It goes down to 33 m. You get in from a boat. It suits experienced divers only, as a dive guide states it. The coast faces SW: swell from the SW reaches it, and wind from the NE blows out to sea. No dive centre within 10 km, the nearest 32 km away. The sea is about 18°C in February, its coldest month (7 mm wetsuit and hood), and 30°C in July, its warmest (rash vest or 1 to 2 mm). For experienced divers the best months are usually January, February, March and April, with about 7 good days in 7. From the weather of past years. The town to stay in is Inlet Beach.
