Details |
Club dive with St George Underwater Centre.
Entered on the northern side of the island, near to the north west tip. Descended to the sand line and then headed west along the reef and up over the rock platform near the anchor. Veered to the north west and down the ramp. Headed around the corner but two of the group were already down to 100 bar so Gareth took everyone back. I stayed in the area around Seahorse Rock looking for pygmy pipehorses but didn't find any. Exited at the "boat ramp". |
