3. Macro Garden:
• Intro & History
This is the best site to spot some cool liOle stuff. Instructors Akhil and Khush took a boat out and did a drii dive in 2015 and swam to 2 Km West of Danny’s eel garden hoping to discover a new dive site. Luckily, they came across a lot of macro life such as seahorses, nudibranchs, juvenile octopuses, crabs, anemones, frogfish etc. Akhil then took a couple of lines 3ed to rocks and placed them on the ocean bed. As 3me passed by, corals started to grow on it, and hence the dive site has been named Macro Garden. This site is for divers on the lookout for macro stuff.
