Notes
Never seen so many huge Potato groupers / Potato cods in one dive site. Swam beside one which was almost as big as myself! Also a White tip reef shark cruising by, 2 green morays hiding under the rocks, a hawksbill sea turtle eating, three very big stone fish close together and many other fish.
Coral was ok, but other Ribbon reef sites have better.
No current, not deep, easy to dive.
