Algoa Bay today: Poor (0-3m) Full outlook & 14-day forecast
A shallow reef located to the left of the pier, directly in front of Barney's Restaurant. It's an ideal spot for beginners or a quick after-work dive. Large white steenbras have been seen in the area, and spotted grunter can be found all over the reef. At the marked coordinate there's a ledge system running north follow it to discover some interesting cave structures. To the right of the coordinate is where the majority of the reef sits.
Wildlife white steenbras, blacktail, shad, spotted grunter, shad, yellowbelly, bronze bream, galjoen , east coast rock lobster

Awesome reef for a quick after work dive. After the sun disappears you can dive under the piers lights.
