'The Hippolyte Rocks are known from shore as the treacherous granite island
that rises out of the ocean off the Tasman Peninsula.
The group of rocks have claimed two ships, tricking mariners into passing
through the calmer waters between them.
But what lies beneath in the cold water of the Tasman Sea is a colourful
wonderland of fish, sponges and coral that rivals the Great Barrier Reef.
Dive instructor, underwater photographer and marine scientist Matt Testoni said
Hippolyte Rocks and nearby Trident Reef were the best dive sites in Tasmania.
"I think it's some of the best deep diving in Australia," he said.
"I find it much better than the Great Barrier Reef."'
