Verena's Garden, on the southwest tip of Farondi Island, is a wall dive with a long cavern into the centre of the island. The reef wall is carpeted with colorful soft corals, gorgonians and sea squirts. Schools of snapper, fusilier and surgeonfish are prolific. Armies of large humphead parrotfish often storm past. Pairings of butterflyfish and angelfish are numerous. The challenge for photographers is to get both the pair in one shot. It's worth taking your time to look in all the bush corals for critters like ghost pipefish and on whip corals for whip gobies. Crustaceans and nudibranchs are also numerous. The cavern entrance at 5-12 meters is guarded by schools of sweepers. Mimic octopus can be found in the tunnel.
