> Shelly Beach

> http://www.asitis.com.au/~adlind/ddescrip.htm#Shellyb
> A very easy and entertaining dive in a sheltered part of Twofold Bay. Just
> wade in and swim to the outside edge of the exposed rocks and down you go.
> There are two main dive options here. Firstly you can follow the natural
> reef to the right and link up with the long Snug Cove breakwater .
> Navigating is easy from here as you follow the sandline out to 10 -12 m.
> The second option is to go left and explore the natural reef which is
covered
> in weed, sponges and gorgonia fans. There is a layer of silt covering the
> sand which can easily blot out much of the available visibility if divers
are
> careless (student divers learn minimal impact techniques quickly if they
> want to see anything). Skill Level: Beginner

Interesting.  Does anyone know where this particular Shelly Beach is?  :-)

Follow the link.  It seems to be a place called Sapphire Coast which,
according to the a search seems to be nearby Sidney and Manly.
