Arrive at Julian Rocks Marine Sanctuary (Nguthungulli)

Your snorkel adventure takes place at Julian Rocks Marine Sanctuary, a fascinating underwater oasis of marine life activity. It's often considered one of the best dive sites in Australia, and the entire world! Julian Rocks Marine Sanctuary has the highest level of protection, meaning the natural world here is largely undisturbed. Its unique location in northern NSW allows for the convergence of warm, tropical currents and cooler currents, making for a thriving ecosystem that supports a huge variety of sea creatures. Julian Rocks is also a sacred Aboriginal site, and its traditional name is Nguthungulli, meaning "Father of the World".
