Deep Sponge - 2 Mile Reef
★★★★☆
(170)
An advanced dive site about 500m to the seaward side of Two Mile Reef. Deep Sponge is named for its huge vase-like sponges. The reef is rather flat sloping down towards the seaward side. At 27m is falls down to 30m with a slight wall on the seaward side.
The bottom is primarily covered with soft corals, but what stands out is the huge vase-like sponges. Turtles, potato bass, and big schools of game are the other attractions.
