About Scottshead Bay

Named after George Scott, the first Englishman to set up a Garrison there. As the name implies this is the dive site inside the bay, so it's very sheltered and calm. Being a wide shallow(ish) bowl you just lazily descend down to your planned depth. Masses of reef with some sand channels and spurs. until you turn back, make your way out toward the west or in toward east then parallel that back shallower to the mooring.
