New ! Dendro's Peak

We found this site towards the end of the season 06/07 and named it "Dendro's Peak"!

Why the Name? it is covered with the mainly red variety of the soft coral species Dendronestia sprinkled with orange and white gorgonian seafans.

Underwater pinnacle with the top starting in 15m depth featuring a straight down to 45m wall and a gentle slope on the other site to 25m ending in sandy bottom.

Conditions: we had the pleasure to dive it twice after discovery so it is too early to say if the conditions encountered are always like that, in any case visibility was 25 m, currents vary in strenght.

What we saw so far left an impression of 'this is too much to take it all in". Among the species we have seen, Grey reef sharks, Marble rays, Eagle rays, Leopard sharks, schools of Chevron Barracudas, big Jackfish, big sized red snappers, Gostpipefish, Harleqiuen shrimps to name a few.

The crew and guests of MV Faah Yai will surely have a lot more to say about this site during the coming high season.

here are some pictures to enjoy
