Description

Knawesome Bommie, also known as Al's Bommie (after Allie Beckhurst), is located inside the bay on the top North East section of the Lonsdale Wall system. This large bommie rises from 40 metres to 22 metres with lots of other smaller ones scattered around it. Because it is located in the shipping channel this rarely dived site is teaming with marine life and a fantastic area for taking photographs.

There is a large ship's anchor heavily encrusted into a section of Knawesome Bommie.

Knawesome Reef is covered in soft corals sponges and fans, with some overhanging ledges and small caves. It is outside the Marine Park and Crayfish are known to be caught in the area. Other common fish species include the Southern Blue Devil, Magpie Morwong, Boarfish, schools of Pike and many others.
