About Carpenters

This site gained attention a few years back when a great white shark made an appearance here. Carpenters starts at a depth of 14 meters, gradually descending to 24 meters, and offers a rewarding experience for experienced divers prepared for challenging conditions. Due to the often strong currents and rougher waters, this site requires a negative entry and advanced buoyancy control. Divers should be experienced in handling varying currents to safely enjoy the site, which can offer exciting drift diving when conditions allow.

Dive Site Hazards

Eddy Pull-Off Zones — Eddies behind structures can pull divers away from the main drift line.
Delayed Surface Pickup — Strong current can exceed surface tracking assumptions, delaying boat pickup.
Vertical Current Shear — Currents may vary by depth, causing vertical separation even when divers stay together.

Hidden Depth Variations — Complex reef topography can conceal depth changes, leading to unintended profile variations.

Distraction from Marine Activity — High fish activity can distract divers and delay depth or gas awareness.

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