Whittle Rock

Whittle Rock is situated in False Bay, approximately 9km from Miller's Point and 17km from Kalk Bay Harbour. The site is marked with a metal buoy. The rock covers a large area and comes within 3m of the surface. The conditions are usually fairly good and a surge can be expected only when there is a very big ground swell running. The area is not dived too often and the invertebrate life is very colourful and almost unspoilt. Divers should note that a number of great white sharks frequent the area and that they should decent as soon as possible once in the water.
