User:Pbsouthwood/Dive site positions

An alphabetic list of the dive sites of the Cape Peninsula and False Bay for convenient reference on smartphones for dive boat skippers at sea. If the position is not here, click on the link. If the position seems wrong click on the link. If the link has the same position and it is wrong, let me know and I will try to fix it.

If you know of other Cape Town dive sites not listed here and have a position, also let me know, and I will try to map them some day.
