How Hot is this Dive Site? click a star to rate it
The dive site is a huge pinnacle that starts at its peak just below the surface and then decends some 30m. It took about an hour to reach by boat, but was well worth the wait. We saw sea anemones as far as the eye could see that looked like huge fields swaying in the breeze. There are plenty of fish to photograph, including tuna, barracuda, tropical and clown fish and an abundance of lion fish. Although we did not see any we were told that you could find leopard shark here.

This Urchin shot was taken on one of my first attempts in underwater photography. I do like the detail and the highlights with the blue colour. Pretty happy with the outcome.
