Julian Rocks-Hugo’s Trench is located within the Cape Byron Marine Park in Australia and serves as a very interesting dive site. It features a trench that cuts into the island and creates curious bottom contours. This canyon gets narrower the farther in divers go, but there are many crevices in the rock large enough for them to pass.
