    StandoutExceptional marine biodiversity

    We’ve found Sun Rise to be a pretty mellow dive, sitting at just 10 metres, which makes it a good spot for a chilled out afternoon. This old motor vessel, grounded back in 1980, is now completely covered in sponges and gorgonians, a real treat for macro photographers. You can spend a good chunk of time poking around the superstructure, spotting scorpionfish lurking in the shadows and various nudibranchs on the encrusted railings. It's a nice easy dive, perfect for stretching out a surface interval, or for those days when you just want a relaxed exploration without much current to worry about.
