Matap
Divers descend a mooring line onto a sandy slope with a small reef. Weedy scorpionfish, lionfish and spiny seahorses are found at the start, followed by a reef slope covered in soft corals where ornate ghost pipefish hide. On night dives Armina slugs with hitchhikers and stargazers peeking out of the sand are seen, and basket stars may be found.
