Clownfish and juvenileThe main attraction at North Emma is a very nice bommie whose top is lying at 35 meters of depth. You will see that it is covered with sea fans, sea whips and many soft corals. The main reef is very shallow with parts that are not deeper than 1 meter. After a short stop near the bommie, coming back up is a great adventure. Just take your time and navigate your way up slowly by enjoying all the marine life. Many different species of anemonefish will take a close look at you. White-bonnet, orange, pin and black anemonefish are just a few of the species you will encounter here. Other interesting life that can be seen are damselfish, turtles and butterflyfish.
