Site details

An astonishing dive off Pura island where nearly every surface of the slope is carpeted with bulb-tentacle sea anemones, reckoned to be among the highest anemone concentrations anywhere. Clark's and tomato anemonefish dart between hosts, and volcanic bubbles seep from the seabed in the shallows. A unique, easy site that doubles as a sign of Pura's volcanic origin.
