Rotto
been a while since I dived in that part of the world but I think Parker point gets a little hammered, probably best trying to slip into a couple of the bays a little further west, we used to do alright from places like little salmon bay and some of the others.
My spots are so secret even the fish don't know about them !

The Rock,
area,s between Parker Point and Dyer Island on south side have some nice caves and good crays.
Remember no slings or guns within 200 mts of Island ,Ranger will get you Yogi.
Area East of North Point NTH side of Island also OK when sea breeze is in.
