| COMMENTS : |
This submerged reef is covered on top by a huge kelp forest, which stops at the edge of the boulder slope and cliff where the dive site is entered. It offers safe breeding and shelter to the many species that this huge site is inhabited by. Opening into a series of upward running gulleys, wee caves and a chimneys there is so much to explore, that you'll never see all the colour and life on one dive. This divesite can be enjoyed in almost any weather conditions and from the shore. |
