Diving is another popular pursuit, with the abundant colourful coral outcrops in the crystal clear waters offshore from Gove and its adjacent islands attracting increasing numbers of scuba and snorkelling stalwarts.
Opportunities exist for drift, deep and multi level diving, though locals strongly recommend that these be pursued in the company of an experienced dive charter operator who can provide advice on how to keep safe in these remote waters.
Nhulunbuy has a well-established dive centre providing all necessary equipment and tank refilling facilities and also offering a range of snorkelling and scuba diving courses for the uninitiated or less experienced.
