Tumby Bay Jetty sits on the Spencer Gulf coast of the eastern Eyre Peninsula, 45 km north of Port Lincoln. It is one of South Australia's classic shore-entry jetty dives, with a resident leafy seadragon colony on the pylons and a steady catalogue of stingrays, seamoths, pipefish and nudibranchs around the structure. The dive is shallow, calm, and well-suited to Open Water divers with patient observation skills. There is no dive shop in town; bring your own kit or hire from Port Lincoln.
