    They are a sight to see,last time I was there they were cleaning themselves on the wreck & sand bottom,awesome shot

  • Norbert Probst replied

    I had just one day there, and I was lucky with calm and clear sea. In one dive I shot “Twister”, “The Beauty and the Beast”, “Surrounded” and some more nice stuff. The other dives I did small stuff.
    But I know this place with bad conditions too. It was 1986 when I did the first dive there. Soon I will be back again (20. Nov.).
    Best fishes, Norbert
