This reef is a massive 80m-sized mushroom rock . is covered with beautiful Green Tree coral that provides a home to masses and masses of Goldie's, there are also plenty of soft and hard corals too. It's a spectacular sight, and under the eaves of the mushroom, can be found Honeycomb and Black cheek Moray's, Fire gobies, Coachmen, big Rockcod and Devil firefish. At the mushroom's base are large Potato Bass and a resident Brindle Bass. Just to add a bit of variety, 10m north of the reef is a large rock that has an interesting swim thru, with Trumpet fish and Red Fang Triggerfish all over it, but usually it's the big mushroom that takes up your dive time.
General info: Unfortunately because of its size we don't dive this reef in a strong current. And because of its depth and the need for a rapid descent we like all divers to be experienced in deep diving and negative entry procedures.
