The dive site Three Sisters are a series of three large bommies lined up next to each other. The second and third sister rise to within 1m of the surface and have a gap of only 3 meter between them. This gap is filled with aquatic life such as schools of fusiliers and the yellow gorgonians that grow on the walls. Near the surface of sister 2 lives a green turtle which feeds on sponges and algae. Encounters with reef sharks and turtles are common and always friendly. The first sister is about 40 meters to the West.

If I'm not mistaken on top of the 3rd Sister there is usually a large turtle sleeping at night, as it is too big to find cover under rocks around the bommies... what a site and sight!
