All about Snake Pit dive site
Ribbon Reef
Snake Pit suggests a reef site where olive sea snakes or banded sea kraits may be a notable possibility, though direct site data is limited. It is safest described as a tropical reef dive with a focus on mobile marine life and coral habitat.
What to see
Sea snakes may be possible in suitable habitats, along with reef fish, soft corals, coral trout, turtles, whitetip reef sharks, and nudibranchs. Sandy channels may also hold rays.
When To Go Diving
June to November is generally the clearer season for Great Barrier Reef and Coral Sea sites. Water temperatures usually range from about 24°C in winter to 29°C in summer.
