Comments:
Series of smaller bommies around one larger one. Red Emperor are
extremely common on this site as are two very large Moray Eels found on
the larger Bommie. Pay attention to the cave on the larger bommie as it
always holds an array of fish. Good all weather dive site. Don't dive
with any Northerly in the swell or wind. |
