Comments and Feedback
The dive was predominantly to remove fishing line on the reef - there is more litter but the line removal took up a lot of time.
A truly FANTASTIC dive site … a hidden gem; with very large corral and sponge specimens including: Plate, Moon, Brain, Fan, Lettuce leaf, Tube sponge And many more …
