Hi guys,

I'm going camping in T'K end Dec/Jan. Staying at White Clay and Anchorage hotel and camp site. Have not been there for 15 years. Where are good spots to snorkel in and around Coffee bay, Hole in the wall area?

Would apperciate some pointers.

last year we stayed in Coffee bay in Feb and there were fish everywhere. caught almost everything except goldies, up to date i havent spotted one! lol. there were so many lionfish we stopped catching them, wrasses galore. Caught a semi or old woman (not sure). caught puffers, filefish, surgeons, squirrelfish

Hole in the wall is really difficult. there are some very nice pools right in front of white clay. coffee bay self where the little river comes in against those ledges are always some nice beauties. and then 200m on the other side of coffee bay there is some nice pools and ledges...always nice goodies there!

pm me if you need more specific details:yeahdude:

Hey Jaques,

For the chaeto, i'll bring back something for you.

Have you seen the "bumble bee shrimps" there? Very cute.
 
Hi DV8 - this is a "Bumble bee shrimp" - they are basically "cleanup crew":

look deep into the caves in the Tk rockpools and you may see them, dont be fooled by their lethargic appearance they are quick little buggers.. the females are bigger than the males try keep them in pairs..

dude get the things you cant find in th LFS, thats the main reason i go to the kei, i focuss on shrimps limpids and hermits for algae controll.. its so nice not to have to just be satisfied with what is available to you.. and yo have the freedom to look for the more unknown.


just let me know when you coming past i will make sure i got soe beers for you.
