Rarer Fishlife in Sydney - Where to See

Michael McFadyen's Scuba Diving - Fishlife in Sydney The fishlife around Sydney and in NSW is so varied, with hundreds of species of fish able to be seen. Some sites are better than others for certain species. In the table below, I have attempted to give you an idea of where to find some of the harder to find, rarer species. The locations are given in order of where you will have the best chance of seeing the species listed. Click on the site location and it will take you to the article on that site.
