Kangaroo Island-South Australia

[Markus Nord]

Hi!

I'm planing a dive trip to Kangaroo Island. Anyone know a divecenter or Diveguide there? My object is to film Leafy Sea Dragon.

Markus,

MSN Search is your friend. :) The following links may help, although I can't vouch for any of them - as I haven't used their services.

If you're down that way, feel free to drop in to Melbourne.. You can get plenty of Weedy Sea Dragon pics/video footage here.

Hi!

Thanx Nick...

I'll already checked the links :) ... The trip will be my honeymoon. So Kangaroo Island look's like a nice place to visit (my chick are not diving).
But I also combine the trip with some diving and videographing.

Do you need to dive with a company in Au? or can you rent tanks (and a guide :) ) and go diving?

Markus,

Congratulations. :)

I'm not sure whether there are any requirements to use a company on Kangaroo Island. In general (AFAIK), you can hire cylinders and a guide (if required) and go diving. Some sites may have special conditions associated with them - permits, limited access, etc. but generally people choose to use a company to get past logistical issues - boat, location of site, etc.

Some of the other aussies on the site may have dived Kangaroo Island and can provide some more specific details about the place and requirements.

Cheers,


Nick

Any chance for those links from PM ..? Nothing much in the net so according to pictures from local web sites seals might be a good idea for light movie. ... ;) From my own small experience but I am not sure, I know that those people are best in the field. Check them out..! ;)

Hi!
the other link was to diveoz forum (you probably know about that site).
I put in a post on that forum too. What I understand, Rapid Bay Jetty is one off the best site to spot Leafy Sea Dragon. I got in contact with another videographer in SA.
Thanks Nick for that tip...
