Far garden
At the beginning of the dive are 2 coral pinnacles reaching nearly to the surface, this is a great place to slowly descend whilst looking around for the smaller things in life, look closely for the blennies popping their head out of their holes, as the dive continues the reef is a wall but not entirely vertical with pinnacles between the reef plate and the drop off. Unusually, often seen on the floor here are upside down jelly fish that look like a bowl of rice pudding with almonds sprinkled on top. As the dive gets closer to the end, the reef plateaus’ out, in the summer months this corner is a great place to see whale sharks, mantas and even the odd hammerhead shark has been spotted here. Another fabulous place to watch octopus changing their colours and texture, and watch out for the many napoleon wrasse that live in the area.
