How Hot is this Dive Site? click a star to rate it
Dive site is a shallow lagoon (max depth 12m) in a sheltered sandy bay. There is normally no current and the area is roped off for snorkelers to use, so it's a popular site with lots of boat traffic and for that reason care needs to be taken if diving on the deeper outside edge of the lagoon. It has a large coral reef with densely packed coral heads fringing the lagoon. Experienced divers will probably want to dive along the fringing edge and avoid the shallower snorkeling areas.

I noticed this Spotted Hermit Crab (Dardanus megistos) crawling over the coral and waited until it came over the rise, so as not to spook it back into the shell, like I normally do.<><><>Canon G9, Inon UCL-165 macro lens.
