Details |
Entered at The Steps and descended to the sand line. We headed south-east toward The Leap carefully inspecting all the sponge covered rocks for seahorses and anglerfish. Unfortunately, we didn't find any. We did see a few Port Jackson sharks, lots of weedy seadragons and a few cuttlefish. We turned around half way to The Leap and swam back to The Steps a little shallower. We exited at The Steps. |
