# Lummi Island

Lummi Island is in the Northwest Washington region of Washington State. Lummi Island is best known for its unique reefnet salmon fishery, eclectic population of artists, picturesque seascapes, and rural setting.

## Understand

Lummi Island lies at the southwest corner of Whatcom County, Washington, between the mainland and the San Juan Islands. The Lummi Indian Reservation is situated on a peninsula east of the island, but does not include Lummi Island. The island has a land area of 23.97 km² (9.255 sq mi) and had a population of 822 as of the 2000 census. The population nearly doubles in summer when property owners from both Canada and the U.S. arrive for summer fun and relaxation.

### History

The island was called Sa nam a o ("High Mountain") and Skallaham by the native Indians. In 1792 Spanish explorers dubbed it Isla de Pacheco, and it was later known as McLoughlin Island. In 1853, the U.S. National Geodetic Survey charted the island as Lummi, naming it after the tribe. It is believed the name comes from luminara, referring to the bonfires the Spanish saw upon arrival and whence the tribe also took their name, though there are also theories that it is derived from a native word or phrase. The Island post office came into existence in 1882. At that time mail was addressed to "Beach Washington" which was the name of the town. Today Island mail is addressed to "Lummi Island Washington", though the Beach School and Beach Store Cafe retain the Beach community name.

# Diving the south coast of South Africa/Twelve Mile Bank

The dive site Twelve Mile Bank is an extensive offshore rocky reef, south of Cape Agulhas, near Struisbaai in the Western Cape province of South Africa.

## Understand

This is the second to southernmost recreational dive site on the coast of Africa, and has a reputation among spearfisherman for plentiful fish.

### Position

* -35.02166719.924551 12 Mile Bank ridges: S35°01.300' E19°55.473'

### Name

The name "12 Mile Bank" is a simple description of the distance offshore of the reef.

### Depth

Maximum depth is about 36 m. and the top of the ridges are about 30 m. (Average depth of a dive is likely to be about 32m.) Minimum charted depth is given as 26 m.

### Visibility

Visibility can be quite good, in the order of 10 to 15 m, but not much data is available.

### Topography

The bank is a reef of apparently hard sedimentary rock, much of it fairly low profile, with higher profile roughly parallel ridges and gullies, with relatively steep slopes. There are occasional sandy patches in locally low areas.

### Conditions

The site is exposed to the weather, wind waves, and swell from all directions, so should be dived when the weather and sea state forecast is good.

## Get in

This is a boat dive. The site is about 12 nautical miles (22 km) south of Cape Agulhas, and 36 km by boat from Struisbaai Harbour, where there is a large public access slipway in good structural condition.

## See
### Marine life

The flatter areas are dominated by a spiny kelp forest of variable density, with more colourful sessile invertebrates such as sponges, octocorals and bryozoans on the steeper surfaces. A variety of fish typical of south coast reefs swim above the rocks.
* Kelp at 12 Mile Bank
* Sponges
* Coralline seaweed
* Sponges
* Red stumpnose
* Noble coral
* Basket star
* Nudibranch

### Suggested routes
## Stay safe
### Hazards

Getting lost while surfacing, particularly if decompression is fairly long. The site is far out to sea and the strength of the current is variable. Be cautious with decompression, it is a long way to the nearest chamber.

### Skills

Certification for the depth, which will generally exceed 30 m, and the ability to deploy a decompression buoy are strongly recommended.

### Equipment

Delayed surface marker buoy and reel or spool. Nitrox will make the dive more cost-effective by allowing a significantly longer dive time for a reasonable amount of decompression, taking into account that the nearest chambers are at Cape Town and Mossel Bay. Make sure there is oxygen on the boat.
