The Gateway

Located on the north side of Bass Point, The Gutter is easily recognisable due to its deep “v” shape in the surrounding coastal rock, and also continues underwater to a depth of around 10 meters making navigation easier.

The Gutter is relatively immune to weather due to is northerly facing aspect, making it suitable to dive the majority of the year, and for all diver levels – for this reason it also provides a fantastic night diving experience.

 

This one entry and exit point gives you access to a host of magnificent dive sites. To the north is renowned Blue Devil Cave (20-22m). And over to the northwest are 'second' and 'third' gutter, which are another two underwater canyons, respectively 14-18m, and 19-20m deep. In the Autumn of 2022 the Gutter also seems to have become a haven to the greynurse shark, as several have been spotted close to the entry and as far out as 10m rock.
