    Black Rocks offers a straightforward dive, topping out at 19 metres. It’s mostly a rocky landscape, good for newer divers or those looking for an easy afternoon. You’ll find small schooling fish around the rock formations, and we often spot blennies and gobies tucked into crevices. A pleasant enough dive, if not particularly dramatic.
