This is not a bay at all. The coastline has a convex curve along this dive site. The resort on the shore is called "Rocky Bay", and the site name follows from that.
Basket stars have often been seen on the deeper reefs. Galjoen in the inshore gullies, and a good range of invertebrates on the reefs.

This is not a bay at all. The coastline has a convex curve along this dive site. The resort on the shore is called "Rocky Bay", and the site name follows from that.
Basket stars have often been seen on the deeper reefs. Galjoen in the inshore gullies, and a good range of invertebrates on the reefs.
The shingle bottom looks pretty stable, with well-established benthic encrustation. Lots of Peacock fan worms about 200 m offshore. Solitary squirts of a few species, common feather stars, golden cucumbers, encrusting sponges, a very few small sea fans.
Sandstone ridges and gullies are roughly parallel to the shoreline, which is steep and reflects rather than breaks waves, so the anchorage is very bumpy in a swell. This area gets fairly deep quickly, then slopes gradually down with outcrops getting lower and more sparse with distance from the shore.
