How Hot is this Dive Site? click a star to rate it
When diving this site, make sure that you do have a 7 mm suit. The water does get a bit chilly. When it is your call to get in the cage, try to be first in line, so that you have the outside corner of the cage. Don't try to pet the sharks as they come by, and yes they do come by that close.
