Silky shark heaven.
Pretty reef with lots of small stuff and schools of jacks etc. However this is not the highlight of this site. This site seems to attract lots of silky sharks that come very close to divers and are very inquisitive. The night dive with the silkies is excellent.
There were also reports of regular visits to this site by 2-3 large tiger sharks.
