The Western Rocky Islands

three stooges

Western Rocky lies just a few short hours from Victoria Point, part of our south Burma excursions.

The Rocky islands consists of a main rock and some boulders on a sandy bottom.

The highllight at this rock is a huge arch and a penetrating cave/tunnel creating a passage through the island to the other side, where sometimes a huge nurse shark is acting like a watch dog, he should not be pushd away, like we have seen now on many occassions by divers from other boats where this is obviously is not emphasiesed enough during the dive briefing given.

There is a second cave at the east side, providing shelter for many crustaeceans.

The shallow part sourounding the rock boasts colourfull softcorals, creating an impression of taking a bath in a rainbow. Nudibranches are ther to watch as well.
