    Bloody Bay Wall is one of those places that sticks with you. We love dropping in over that shallow reef, maybe 6 or 7 metres deep, and then just gliding out over the edge. The wall itself starts at about 10 metres and just disappears into a deep blue that feels endless. Visibility here is consistently excellent, often well over 25 metres, so you really get that feeling of floating in space. We’ve spent entire dives just hovering, watching angelfish and parrotfish graze the reef top before looking out into the blue. Keep an eye out for turtles drifting by, and those big mutton snapper often hang around the deeper ledges. Our favourite part is the sheer scale of it, and the way the light filters down the wall. It’s not a drift dive, usually, so you can take your time exploring the cracks and crevices along the drop-off, looking for those tiny blennies and gobies. It’s an easy dive for anyone comfortable with depth, and perfect for photographers wanting that dramatic wall shot.
