    We love Green Outhouse for a chill drift dive when we want to see lots of small stuff, and maybe a pod of orcas if we’re really lucky. The reef here, topping out around 20 metres, is a gentle slope where the current often just pushes you along. It's a great spot to cruise slowly and keep your eyes peeled. Our favourite thing about Green Outhouse is the sheer number of those little creatures that are so easy to swim straight past. Think Mottled Jawfish peering out of their burrows, their mouths full of eggs, or tiny Four-fin Blennies darting between coral branches. We often spot Mimic Blennies here too, a real treat to watch. The visibility, usually around 20 metres, lets you see far enough without being overwhelmed, perfect for focusing on the details. We’d suggest going in the morning; the light is softer, and the currents tend to be a little more predictable. If you're into macro life and enjoy a relaxed pace, Green Outhouse is a solid choice. You’ll be pointing out new things to your buddy for the whole dive.
