About Vuma Caves

The entrance to the cave was a 'jaw-dropper' of an entrance not for spectacular cathedral like structure at all, but purely for the marine life that it houses. Moving around by torchlight, the beam is attracted immediately to bright flashes of red and then yellow. The big-eyed soldier fish sit in large schools gleaming red in the dark corners of the rock while the entrance is filled with yellow striped snapper. Large Potato Bass sat sulking in the dim recesses. Unfortunately there were many particles in the water on our dive so the photographs did not depict the cave's real splendour and colour. C'est la vie....again!
