Dive report - West Side Monday 29 June 2009

So much action at O's Wall today! Green turtles, huge potato cod getting cleaned, moray eels poking out from under rocks and 100s of bright yellow damsels bobbing in and out of the staghorn corals. We saw four different species of angelfish plus two different juvenile species. Too much to remember - the fish life was wonderful!

Central Station had all of its usual fish life today plus some very cool bigger creatures. Another enormous potato cod was cruising along the reef, checking everything out and then drifting off into the distance. A good sized green turtle relaxed on the reef and a very large grey reef shark cruised up and down the reef, coming into sight several times throughout the dive. We had manta rays, too. One group of divers had a manta all to themselves for over 15 minutes - just watching it gracefully circle them over and over!
