Today is our last day on our dive boat. Western Rocky is a small barren island, perhaps 60 m wide. It is home to hundreds of painted spiny lobsters and some playful nurse sharks.

Burma Banks are a group of seamounts with surrounding waters exceeding a depth of 300 m, the top of the banks rise to within 15-24 m of the surface. Silvertips sharks are quite common here.  Tawny nurse sharks are also easily spotted, as they doze half-hidden under the overhangs created by the table corals that dot the flat seascape here.
