The Triangle
★★★★★
(4)
This inner Fiord dive site is a mix of rocky shoreline leading onto sand plus steep wall diving. There is a steep drop-off that houses one of the largest black coral trees in the Fiord at about 18 meters that has a few carpet shark eggs attached. Generally a thick surface freshwater layer and darker conditions.
Spiny seadragons can be spotted here, along with a good chance to see seven gill and dogsharks. Variable and wellington nudibranchs can be seen, plus an abundance of tube anemones.
