Located just five miles off the coast from Narooma, Montague Island is one of diving's most diverse and best-kept secrets. The island's unique location offers dozens of dive locations. The favourite for new and regular divers is Montague's famous Australian Fur Seal Colony. Every diver who experiences the joy of swimming with these cute, playful, wide-eyed creatures emerges with a feeling of amazement at the friendliness of these fun-seeking seals. It's an easy dive with most of the seals sunbaking on the surface within 20 metres of the anchored boat. Yet when a diver enters the water they just can't help themselves and come charging over to show off their agility to the strange clumsy creatures with bottles on their backs!
