Shoal of Bengali Snappers and Yellow Striped Goatfish |
Haven for medium sized rock cods |

This is one of the healthiest reef systems in the East Coast. A long rocky reef lush with marine life. As we descend a large shoal of Bengali Snappers and Yellow Striped Goatfish form a dense cloud obstructing our front. On our left we see two medium sized Coral Rock Cods gazing at us with curiosity. Then further away we see two more. Between them and us the rocks are covered with lovely leather coral and Sea Anemones. Suddenly a school of Trevally dart around the dive site. Amidst a gentle current we drift through the yellow cloud of snappers and goatfish and see a small Napolean Wrasse.
