Freediving + Snorkeling South Solitary Island, Australia - Road Trip
My wife and I drove up to Coffs Harbour on Australia's East Coast to teach a freediving course and do a little snorkeling on the side. On the course we were lucky enough to see lots of sharks, turtles and enjoyed exploring the shore of South Solitary Island. Some divers were even lucky enough to see hammerheads!
In Coffs Harbour we also stopped in to visit my brother and hunted for the elusive mutton bird.
We also explored the Newcastle marina to visit our friend's boat that they are currently building. Join us on our road trip to Coffs Harbour and back!

South Solitary Island
South Solitary Island off the east coast of NSW about 15km NE of Coffs Harbour. The island is part of the Solitary Islands Marine Park.
Scuba diving with the guys from Jetty Dive and we put the quadcopter up during the surface interval. I used a Gopro Hero 4 underwater and a DJI Phantom 2 with a Gopro Hero 3+ for the aerial video.
We had clear days with very little wind, great for flying the quadcopter. 20-25m visibility underwater and plenty of marine life.
Thanks to Mike, Debbie and the entire team at Jetty Dive, who made sure that we were always at the top spots both underwater and on the surface.
