Grapple Rocks was an expansive pinnacle which peaked at forty-five feet. A dive to sixty feet revealed boulders and rock formations with increasing coral density approaching the summit. Flame angels abounded, as well as rabbit, trigger and filefishes. Large anemones with delicate, lacy, pink-tipped tentacles could be seen, and dozens of juvenile three-spot damsels danced before their anemone hosts. A common encounter is inquisitive green, leather back, or hawksbill turtles.
