Edna’s Anchor
★★★★☆
(154)
The dive follows the sand/ reef edge towards the drop off. At about 22 metres, the sand starts to slope off like a ski slope. In 24 metres, in between 2 coral bommies, lays the big anchor of the schooner Edna which later sunk in Atiu. In 30 metres, the reef drops straight down to about 65 metres.
Parrotfish, scorpionfish, lionfish, turtles, crocodile needlefish, peacock groupers, damselfish, christmastree worms, pineapple sea cucumbers, porites corals.
