Rowley Shoals is a cluster of three coral cays each approx.300metres in diameter that offers safe anchorage for charter vessels after the extended overnight voyage from the historic pearling township of Broome. Sea conditions are favorable only between the months October to November due to monsoonal storms that sweep in from Indonesia. Diving is pristine and worth the long voyage out to the Shoals. Because of the remote location diving is restricted to depths not exceeding 30meters.
