Our friends were diving in November and reported great diving at the wall, the dogs and the Rhone. Lots of coral and great amounts of aquatic life

The center cross-section of the Rhone's bow has somewhat collapsed, making the 'swim through' more difficult. I had heard the swim though no longer existed, although when there in December I was able to make it through. I realize why it is discouraged, and could be unstable. The exit near the mast was a little small, but not tiny. I'm not suggesting it. The nice coral topside surface of the Rhone is damaged, not much color as before. The nice surprise is there are two reef sharks that are constantly circling the bow, one small and the other medium size. They are both curious and will likely follow you closely …. kinda cool. I didn't make it up to the stern area. Overall, still a great dive.
