Unlike reef diving, where you can look around and admire the ambiance of the whole scene, muck diving offers no pretty scenery and requires a more focused approach.
Muck dives involve slowly and patiently exploring the sand, searching for features such as distinguishable fins or eyes. If you look closely, you will be rewarded with spotting the weird and wonderful small critters found nowhere else. Capturing images of them takes specialized equipment plus a lot of time and skill.
