Dragons Lair
(Catchup with Alicia back from the UK )
Despite the name sounding very similar to a number of the wall sites inside the heads, this dive site is just outside of the heads and sits in around 10-20 metres with bommies being the major landscape features and weedy sea dragons proving the name.
Although a passable dive on a really good day , the location and close proximity to shore means on any sort of conditions it is simply a terrible dive site for a boat dive, with strong surge, low vis and generally uninspiring landscape, and especially as on this dive the shot line was on the outer rim of the bommies due to conditions close in.
One of the few dives that I will definitely try to avoid in the future as not worth the investment of a boat dive, I also do not recommend it as a dive site for OW divers, simply due to the nature of the dive and the general disappointment they experience when so many other great dive sites exist to grow their excitement for the sport exist. Diving buddy on this dive was Stephen , with group being Simon, Alicia Rick and Amanda.
