About Tinderbox Marine Reserve

The diving here is good on the northern side the road left above the boat ramp will lead you there. A great muck dive its marine reserve location promises prolific fish life. There are dive flags along the snorkeling trail. Top notch diving can be found at Piersons Point. The decent down the cliff at Fisherman's hall is a bit strenuous but the rewards are awesome. A great night dive.

Rapid Surge Direction Changes — Surge near reef structures can reverse direction quickly, pushing divers sideways into unexpected areas.

Bubble Trapping Under Overhangs — Rock overhangs can trap exhaled bubbles, reducing visibility and causing disorientation.

Reflected Surge Patterns — Surge reflecting off rock faces can create irregular and unpredictable water movement.
