Rye is a small town on the Mornington Peninsula in Victoria, Australia. It’s not a major dive hub and has very limited diving nearby. The town itself lies along the coast with some calm coastal waters; however, there are few local dive centers and shallow, staged dive options in the immediate area. For divers, access typically involves day trips to better-established sites along the peninsula or across Port Phillip Bay, and many visitors focus on beaches, coastal scenery, and wineries rather than destination diving. If you’re seeking underwater exploration, plan excursions to nearby Mornington or larger coastal centers for more reliable dive access.
