Point of Interest? Rock? isn't going to blow anyone's mind with dramatic drop-offs, but it's a solid, easy dive, perfect for a relaxed afternoon. The reef here is more a series of rocky outcrops and sandy patches, but don's let that fool you, we've spotted some great critters. Keep your eyes peeled for ornate wrasse flitting between rocks, and we've even found a sea horse or two tucked into the seagrass beds. It's a fantastic spot for macro photography, and for newer divers looking for calm conditions to build confidence. You'll often find loggerhead turtles cruising by, too.
