Roonies - Sodwana Bay - Dive Sites of South Africa 4K
Roonies is a dive site just off 2-Mile Reef at Sodwana Bay, South Africa. This is a small, flattish, isolated piece of rocky reef that is suitable for advanced divers due to it's depth. What the site lacks in topography it makes up for in density of rare and unusual species. On the northern end of the site is a huge yellow-green black coral tree and on the southern end there is an isolated bommie with large numbers of shoaling baitfish and a cleaning station.
Because it is a little further offshore from the shallower sites on 2-Mile reef, this site tends to have better visibility and is more protected from surge when the swell is big. Because this is a small site it is not recommended whe...

Stringer Reef - Sodwana Bay Scuba Diving 4K - June 2024
Просмотров 4,3 тыс.21 день назад
Stringer Reef, Sodwana Bay, South Africa. We had exceptional conditions on this dive. Stringer Reef is a small but beautiful dive site that is generally difficult to film because it is only 9-14m deep and is usually very surgy with lots of sand churning. On this day however we had a very flat sea with great visibility.

Making the most of some gloomy conditions. The visibility was only 5-8m with quite a bit of silt in the water which made the bottom quite dark. This is always a beautiful wreck though with huge amounts of fish life including the rare Harlequin Goldie (Pseudanthias connelli). Max Depth: 32m Water Temp: 26C Current: Low Visibility: 5-8m

Video of the weekend's dives at Sodwana Bay, South Africa. The dive sites in order of appearance in the video are Simon's Cave, Mellow Yellow, Hopscotch (multiple dives) and Roonies. Due to high winds and big seas we only dived sites on 2-Mile Reef this trip. The water was a very warm 26-28C. Light to medium current and quite a bit of surge due to the large swells, so only wide-angle video was ...

A dive on the beautiful Lander's Reef, south of Aliwal Shoal and east of Rocky Bay. Decent conditions but not an easy day with the camera due to a lot of surge and large particles of plankton in the water. Quite a strong thermocline and the bottom was chilly, though at least better visibility than the surface. Max depth: 32m Current: Low Visibility: 5-15m Sea Temp: 18C

    Thank you so much for sharing these videos, this is so unexpected with the focus on soft corals. The species are like an in-between of carribean corals and fluffy indo-pacific gorgonians and dendronephthyas. I think i could spot many basket stars in the bigger red soft corals? Night dives must be beautiful. It also reminds me of my own place's ecosystem, Quebec's freezing waters, with the ocean floor and walls filled with invertebrates. There seems to be plenty of beautiful ornamented sharks, morays... i'll keep up with your videos. Wish i can see more macro shots of your place in the future
