Yellow Sponge Garden
Auckland, New Zealand
The Yellow Sponge Garden, located west-northwest from the reserve's shore, is a diver's paradise starting at a depth of 8-9 meters. Here, towering kelp leads to sandy patches teeming with unique sponges. These delicate creatures can live over a century, so divers should be mindful of their buoyancy and fin placement to protect this underwater treasure.
