Very good

An interesting dive site worthwile exploring more than once

Large shoal roncadores fish, bull rays x3, angel shark and passing stingrays. Also a couple of inquisitive turtles looking for handouts from the kayakers above (tried out my camera as a snack..). Water temp 22 degs november. Could hear distant dolphin noises from pod near fish breeding pens nearby :)
occasional diver trying to touch rays and turtles- leave them alone they are wild- not pets..
