North Head  to Fishy Point

Stretching along the rugged northern coast of Lord Howe Island, the North Head to Fishy Point snorkel traverse offers a raw, wild experience far from the island's calm lagoon. The exposed rocky headland of North Head gives way to a series of small coves and reef shelves dropping into crystalline Pacific waters. Snorkellers here drift over ancient basalt boulders encrusted with coral, through channels carved by swell, and past the shallow wreck of the Favourite. This is a pristine, less-frequented marine environment where the interface of open ocean and rocky shoreline creates exceptional visibility and encounters with schooling fish, turtles, and stingrays. A guided-only zone, it rewards those seeking Lord Howe's wilder side.
