Simon’s Town Harbor
★★★★☆
(196)
This site is an interesting site as you will enter the water at the yacht club and swim under the moored boats and will navigate to a wreck from a boat that sunk while moored. The site has a max depth of 10m and, because of the boat coming in and out the turbidity is high and often viz isn’t great.
The site has a flat sandy bottom with lots of sea grass which creates a good place for macro life. The wreck creates a space for lots of schooling fish and possibly see cow sharks.
