Acerca de Armchair Reef
Armchair Reef es un arrecife en el suroeste de Gran Caimán con una sensación de mini pared poco profunda, una repisa en voladizo, bolsas de arena y gorgonias prominentes a lo largo del contorno que le dieron nombre al sitio. Los buceadores suelen recorrer lentamente la repisa y la arena adyacente, buscando rayas amarillas descansando, tiburones gata bajo el saliente, jureles en cardúmenes y vida macro pequeña escondida en el arrecife.
