Purple Haze
★★★★★
(310)
A lovely fringing reef off the East side of Peel Island, very close to and similar to Anthony’s Reef. Currents can sometimes be reasonably strong, but shelter is available.
The dive site is characterised by colonies of purple soft coral and barrel sponges. Schooling fish are present most of the time, making it a very nice all round dive.
