The Leap and The Steprs are both inside Botany Bay National Park near Kurnell. The dive master was Emma my buddy was Dylan.
First dive: we entered at the leap and it is easy to understand why it is called the leap. You have to leap about 1.5M into the surf (swell wasn't too bad today) with you scuba gear on and clear the rocks below. It seemed pretty daunting at first but it was quiet easy and safe. We drifted with the incoming tide around to the Steps and exited there. Visibility was quite bad and the water was very cold (13 degs).
Second Dive was from the Steps and we swam a heading of 290 degrees until our air reached 150 bar and turned around on a reciprocal heading. Again visibility was bad but we did spot 1 PJ and 2 Weedy Sea Dragons. We surfaced near the kelp forest and swam 100M to the exit point at the steps. All up two very successful dives and a boost to the navigation skills.
