The Log: 2 Dives

The Log was once part of an ancient tree that now lies somewhere at the bottom of the bay. In this sunny spot, you will see some very old, wild coral formations growing across two kilometres. Most of the reef is angled, and it is filled with sea cucumbers, angel fish, occasional barracuda, and plenty of other marine life. It is one of the most popular diving spots for beginners, just 12 minutes away from BDC, and a good place to learn or improve your diving skills. The Log get its name from the bough of an ancient tree, felled by a storm, that used to break the surface at the dive site. The logs atill around, though its now at the mercy of the tides, and lies on the bottom at around nine metres somewhere in a sparsely-reefed bay. The dive site site itself features one of the widest (and oldest) variety of coral formations in the area, which stretch along a two-kilometre run. There are lots of fish and some spectacular heads of hard coral between 6-10m, decreasing in size as you descend. Most of the reef is angled, but there are some sections where its like a mini-wall. Hawksbill and green turtles, though uncommon, can be seen here from April-early June.
