Right Under their Feet

It's the end of a Rapid Bay dive and as all well executed dive plans end, another slow safe ascent back up to the entry point.

Except this time I spent a little while under the entry platform and it is a microcosm teaming with life.
Hard coral's, sponges, snails, crabs, blennies and gobies all in 50cm of water.

It is a little disconcerting that every time I breath out my bubbles go everywhere chasing critters back into their hiding places however there is plenty to see here right under the feet of other divers just entering the water.
