6Explorer point of view14 Jun 2016Well, it's in the open sea, no islands, no surfacing rocksor reefs, no sign of land as far as eye can see.Well it's deep, from 24m to 32m (80-100ft), there is always a thermocline, sometimes two. Bottom is a sandstone plate, merging 2-5m (7-15ft) from a crear, expanding for a large area (1km² - 4 sqmi). Plate is covere with coral and sponges so it can be very colorful. Formations are peculiar and form a maze of cevices, creeks and trenches where big and small life hide from sight or current. First dive is always scaning the bottom, as it's depp and dive time is around 22min+ss. Second dive is a drift into mid-water at 15m (50ft) and dive time is around 50min+ss. There are at least 30 dive ponts on chart but only half a dozen are visited. A deep wreck is also unnamed and unexplored. Help us exploring them! |
