Dive Site Name: The Deep Atolls

An intriguing series of ridges and atolls lying between 66m/220ft and 82m/270ft which for some reason play home to all the marine life usually found somewhat shallower water. Besides a large number of Ribbon Sweetlips, there is a good school of an as yet unidentified snapper, Batfish, Barracudas, a clearly very ancient grouper and regular sightings of pelagics such as Thresher Sharks. The rocks are fractured and creviced giving home to some large morays, and stingrays sometimes settle on the sand slopes. Tricky to locate, but one of the best sites, dived on a flood tide there will be no current. Decompression is in open water.
