Robbs Jetty, Coogee Beach, WA

[tomy2tums]

I dived Robbs Jetty last time I was at home, a brilliant dive. It would be very good as a night dive, but the site has a reputation for cars being broken into. Only 7m deep maximum.

This is the beach where the famous engineer CY O'Connor took his life by riding his horse into the water and shooting himself.

There is a statue of him, on a horse.

Here is a couple of small Port Jackson Sharks

This Lionfish was living inside a big barrel, and was not into posing for photos.

No idea what this is, and it would not stay still for me to take a picture of

No, they are part of the Horn Shark family (Heterodontidae) and only grow to about 120cm.

Bottom dwellers mostly.

cute and cuddly, not pointy and nasty like a Tiger shark
