The underwater world along the Rooiels shoreline

Free diving for fish and kreef (in season) or just for the beauty of the kelp forests is a favorite pastime in Rooiels.  We occasionally see those who strap on bottles and gear and go diving down to the deep.  But most of us have not really had a chance to share that magic with them.  Thanks to two of these divers for sharing their photos with us.  Enchanted by the quiet, strange and beautiful, they brave the cold.
