Depth Range: 10-25m
A mix of
sand at 15 to 25m between walls of kelp-covered rocky reef. On a
calm day the fish schools are obvious at the surface. Descend
through blue maomao, sweep, demoiselles, trevally, kahawai and
kingfish. Look in the cracks between the rocks for crayfish. Jewel
anemones and white bonsai-like hydroids with resident Jason
nudibranchs line the walls. In late summer large numbers of goatfish
mill around the kelp. If the current increases remember to swim into
it or you could end up a long way from your dive boat. A safety
sausage is a handy accessory.
