Lying
less than a mile north of Shark Point, this dive site is a single large submerged
rock. True to it's name it is covered in a living carpet of sea anemones. Add
to this scenery a constant parade of reef fish and you have a very colorful divesite
indeed. Anemone Reef is also special for its lion fish - sometimes twelve or more
in a group. Zebra (leopard) sharks are frequently seen here also. This divesite is often visited
on the same daytrip as Shark point and King Cruiser.
