we picked up closer to the end of the island

having drifted past the big set of rocky organ pipes that we started with on the last dive

and jumping into the water here the drop off was more extreme

and closer to another set of steeper rocks that were set further back from the water

to be honest we weren't really expecting as spectacular underwater scenery as we had seen on the previous dive

but nontheless we jumped in, heaved the camera overboard and swam down into the blue depths

the drop off just seems to get steeper and steeper as we moved down towards the point.

and we soon found ourselves in very dramatic surroundings

the black snapper still swimming way up above us

and we immediately made contact with a very big bump-head parrot fish

these fish are normally pretty shy and I was quite surprised to have this one swim right past

before it finally decided it didn't want to be near me

we then swam into an area of this dive with almost cathedral like feeling to it

these rocky spires, pinnacles and walls protruding around us

as we swam through this seascape that was just quite surreal

The massive canyons in-between these rocky spires were huge

you can see Grant following me through the slot

There were small clumps of coral scattered across the rocky surface of the drop off here

pretty healthy, although there wasn't much of it

and I imagine the current really moves around this point

Out in deeper water a little spotted eagle ray made a pass

and just below one of the granite buttresses we spent a few moments

this reptile was probably 50cm long and looked really old despite its size

and these little animals are currently nesting here in the Seychelles

and funny enough they nest during the day at high tide

it made its way in-between the rocky walls

turning in front the sheer side of marianne island

and it was soon joined by the bat fish which we had made contact with on the previous dive

they seem very inquisitive, the batfish. Almost tracking the turtle and myself as we swam along

this little turtle free fell over the drop off and disappeared.

just drifting along looking up at these grooved spires that rose for meters and meters above us

it was quite spectacular just to be in this environment.
