Pope's Eye  Depth 12m. A man made basalt rock annulus. It is the foundation of what was to be an Island Fort built in the 1880's. This horse-shoe shaped artificial reef is now a Marine Reserve and the home of many species of fish, invertebrates and algae, including large fronds of macrocysts kelp.
The inside of Pope's Eye provides a safe anchorage in 2-3 metres of water while outside, the rock wall extends to a depth of 12 metres. While the best time to dive Pope's Eye is on the start of the ebb tide, it provides almost all weather, all current diving. Pope's Eye is a must for all divers.
