Ginger Steps
DEPTH: 35-100 FEET (11-30 M)
LEVEL: INTERMEDIATE
Ginger Steps is composed of a series
of huge ledges cascading down from the shallows to
100 feet. The visibility here is normally very good.
Beautiful tube sponges and sea fans grace the leading
edges of the tops of the ledges. Below, look for squirrelfishes,
small grunts and damselfishes. The sand between the
drop-offs is so brilliantly white that the whole site
seems to glow. Down deeper, schools of pale snapper
and grunts congregate in the hollows between the corals.
Barracudas and juvenile angelfishes loiter around the
tiny coral heads scattered in the sand beneath the
mooring.
