Brewers Bay Pinnacles
DEPTH: 25-1 10 FEET (8-33 M)
LEVEL: ADVANCED
An enjoyable summer dive when there's
no north swell, Brewers Bay Pinnacles is located just
off the western tip of the bay. It's too far from the
beach to be dived as a shore dive. The massive pinnacles
are of varying height and bulk. They rise steeply from
the ocean floor, some of them come within 30 feet of
the surface. The gaps between the sheer granite structures
comprise a confusing maze of alleyways, dead ends and
narrow passages. The rocks are covered with deep-water
gorgonians, sea fans and fire coral. Large jacks, eagle
rays and turtles are often spotted by the observant
diver. Amid the rocks and reef look for lobsters, skittish
queen angelfish and whitespotted filefish.
