About The Apartments

The Apartments (many crevices made by a collection of boulders) consists of two sites; The Wall and The Cathedral. They lie just before Collaroy along Sydney's northern beaches, 500 meters off Long Reef Head at 33° 44'17.4"S 151° 19' 38.4"E. If you are good with air consumption you can do both dives at once. Note there can be a bit of a current at times and the vis is good. In the middle of the site there are large rocks with tons to explore. The sunken topography falls to 18m on the eastern side. To the south is an 8m wall, the west a plateau with great cracks and crevices and the north the Cathedral. This collection of sites is said to rival the top Pacific candidates.
