Visibility in Southern Islands
Category : marine
Debby at the Pulau Hantu blog has been trying too convince people that you CAN see marine life in local waters. Likewise the Coral Reefs of Singapore home page has been recording points of exceptional visibility in our heavily sedimented waters.
Lim Chen Kee is a Raffles Museum Toddycat plotted the points from these pages and Debby's data estimates to provide a profile.
So there is marine life and you do have days of good visibility (weekends seem cooperative). Debby and others like the Our Southern Shores dream of the day when exceptional visibility becomes common place and an underwater paradise in emerald green waters greet the visitor peering out of his airplane window as the plane circles to land in Changi, in anticipation of a truly tropical paradise that is Singapore.
