Eagle Ray Rock

Eagle Ray Rock. The name gives a lot away, doesn't it? And often, it delivers. We've had some cracking dives here, especially when the spotted eagle rays glide by, completely unbothered. It's a proper wall dive, starting around 12 metres and dropping down to about 25. You’ll find some massive coral heads near the mooring, making for some cool swim-throughs if you poke around. We like to drift along the wall, keeping an eye out into the blue for those rays. It's a great spot for just cruising, letting the current do some of the work. You’ll see plenty of bluestriped grunts hanging out, and if you get down close to the sand, look for the sand stargazers – they're masters of camouflage. We’ve also spotted some surprisingly colourful parrotfish munching on the coral and the occasional green razorfish darting about. Visibility here is usually excellent, often 20 metres or more, making it easy to appreciate the scale of the wall. It’s a good choice for newer wall divers, as the current isn't usually too wild, but also rewarding for experienced eyes looking for those bigger pelagics.
