Angel City

One of the popular dive sites here on Bonaire is Angel City. On the shore side of Angel City, sea fans and soft corals predominate. On the deep side, a double reef of hard corals seem to attract all kinds of fishes. We often find large schools of small fishes high in the water column, as well as small schools of large fishes, that during the midday, just seem to be hanging out. The bottom photo is a soft coral. The second photo is a school of blue tang descending upon the interface between the soft corals and the hard corals. The third photo shows a hard coral pillar that seems to be a focal point for schools of large fish (schoolmasters and black margate). The top photo is a closer view of the margate and the coral pillar.
