Pretty Point is a short, easy shore dive near Malua Bay, south of Batemans Bay. Spirit Divers' site guide rated it Easy with a maximum depth of 10 m, suitable for all experience levels and for day or night dives. It describes the site as a great one for all experience levels, a good night-dive option and worth bringing a camera, with best conditions in northerly winds. There is car parking near the entry point on Illabunda Drive.

The point has typical Batemans Bay shallow reef: rock and boulders with kelp and crayweed, sand patches, and small ledges and overhangs. Common life includes wobbegongs and Port Jackson sharks under ledges, stingrays on the sand, octopus, cuttlefish and nudibranchs, with blue groper, leatherjackets, sweep and wrasse over the reef. At night, crabs, shrimps and cephalopods are active.

This is a site for relaxed dives, training and photography rather than scenery. Its shallow depth means long bottom times. It is close to other shore sites such as Garden Bay and Guerilla Bay, giving divers several options depending on wind direction. The published description is brief, so depth and layout here are indicative. Because the site is within the Batemans Marine Park, check zoning before fishing or collecting. On a night dive, leave a light at the car or entry so you can find the way back along the rocks, and keep dives short in winter when the water drops to around 13 °C.

From Batemans Bay drive south on George Bass Drive to Malua Bay (about 10 minutes). Spirit Divers gave the entry near 37 Illabunda Drive, Malua Bay, where there is car parking for divers. Walk the short distance to the rocks and pick a sheltered entry.

The site guide provided an entry map and dive plan; ask Beneath the Bay for current entry points.

Spirit Divers rated it best in northerly winds, when the point shelters the entry. It is exposed to southerly and south-easterly swell, which makes the entry harder and stirs up the bottom. Only dive when the swell is under about 1 m.

Visibility drops after rain. A good night dive in calm conditions.

Enter on the sheltered side of the point, follow the reef edge along the sand at 6–10 m with the reef on one shoulder, and turn at half gas. Return on a shallower line, looking under ledges for sharks and octopus, and surface short of the rocks to check the exit.

Spirit Divers listed Pretty Point as an Easy guided shore dive (10 m, day or night, best in northerlies). Beneath the Bay offers guided shore and night dives around Batemans Bay.
