Access to the Underwater Observatory is only possible via two tours, one of which (Full Tour) departs on the hour from the Interpretive Centre (at the base of the Jetty) and take approximately 1 hour and 45 minutes to complete.

The other is called a “Mini-Tour” and this begins at 5 minutes past the hour (at the end of the Jetty) for a safety briefing and requires the visitor to walk out to the UWO for a 15-minute, self-guided tour and walk back again afterwards.

Each year during autumn and winter, the Leeuwin Current brings a narrow band of warm water down the Western Australian coastline. This warm southerly current is responsible for introducing an incredibly diverse array of tropical and sub-tropical species into Geographe Bay, resulting in coral growth at a latitude of 33 degrees south. This is a remarkable phenomenon when compared to the western coastlines of other southern hemisphere continents such as Africa and South America which have no coral growth below 5 degrees south.
