Gulf Pipefish (Stigmatopora narinosa)Observer
davemmdaveDescription
Tentative at species level but undoubtedly the correct genus. Image 1 is cropped from Image 2(RHS),which explains the very limited image quality!
Snorkel from rocks at Bull Ring Bay.
Although not unexpected, I found it interesting that an adult Stigmatopora genus Pipefish was rafting aka hitch-hiking on a drift Posidonia blade so far from the mainland.
I also believe this is a Gulf Pipefish, whose common name would be inappropriate in the context of this observation, but that's just nitpicking by yours truly:)

The female seahorse was motionless when first spotted between the seagrass, but started swimming swiftly through the dense seagrass when she noticed us that we've lost sight after few minutes of spotting her.
