In the same reserve it is possible to scuba dive down to sunken submarines from the Second World War, now home to a rich and interesting array of sea life. Swim with the dolphins at Sorrento or try scuba diving for the first time at Portsea Pier. Go and see all the fish, birds and seals in the Popes Eye nature reserve.
