Dolerite sea caves, towering walls, giant kelp and the deep wreck of the SS Nord.
These are the 3 Tasman Peninsula & Eaglehawk Neck sites in our database, best-documented first, with the operators who run trips to each.
1Tasman Peninsula & Eaglehawk Neck, Tasmania

The dolerite columns that form the highest sea cliffs in the Southern Hemisphere continue underwater here, producing vertical walls, caves and architecture that is genuinely unusual.
Look for: Giant Kelp Forest

Dolerite walls, sea caves and giant kelp beneath some of Australia's highest sea cliffs.
Sponge gardens cover the walls in dense colour, and giant kelp grows in the shallower areas where it remains.
