This is as we arrived at boat rock.

No swell or current at all,smooth seas and water temps at 23c.

Over the years we have dived here many times, though on regular occasions the current is far too strong as it compresses against the end of straddie and then out around this reef, sometimes it is white water around the reef and with no swell.

The current rages so much here at times even free diving you get swept away.
