Steve's Bommie

Steve's Bommie is a fish tornado wound around a stone spindle. The tower rises from thirty meters to just under the surface, and the standard profile is a slow helix: snapper and fusiliers wheel in bands, barracuda hold the outer orbit, and the rock itself hides a famous census of small ambush hunters, from stonefish and leaf scorpionfish to lionfish stacked in the overhangs. A plaque partway up remembers the diver the site is named for. On a still morning the top of the bommie boils with baitfish, and finishing the dive inside that cloud is the kind of thing loggers underline.

वह पल जिसके लिए आप आते हैं: Spiraling fish schools, stonefish and leaf scorpionfish hunting, memorial plaque, dense pinnacle life

टोपोग्राफी: Isolated coral pinnacle rising from about 30 m to within a few meters of the surface

करंट: Usually gentle, but flow across the open reef edge can make the deep start feel like work.

प्रवेश: A single pinnacle on Ribbon Reef No. 3; boats moor close and divers spiral the tower from the base upward.

खतरे: Depth at the base; superbly camouflaged venomous fish, so control buoyancy and hands.

Nitrox: यहाँ इसका फ़ायदा है — प्रोफ़ाइल उस रेंज में हैं जहाँ enriched air no-stop समय को सार्थक रूप से बढ़ाता है (इसके उपयोग के प्रशिक्षण के साथ)।
