Beer Barrels

Nobody knows exactly what the structure was built for; Scubaholics suspects it was part of a floating dry dock for submarines, with the barrels used for lift. The cage is roughly 50 m long and one side is curved and padded. Over the years it has become home to giant frogfish, snappers, trumpetfish, sweetlips, lionfish, scorpionfish and several nudibranch species. Visibility ranges from about 5 to 15 m, and Scubaholics recommends it for macro photography.
