Ablution Facilities at Wondergat
These facilities were recently upgraded and
the water problems that was evident previously were sorted out. There are now free
running hot water in the showers and in the bath at the ladies side. Four outside
cold water showers were build to accommadate divers that want to wash there wetsuits
and hang them up to dry.
The concrete floor was thrown to prevent
mud and dirt to enter into the showers in the ablution block. The sides are covered
at this stage with nylon wind sheeting and will later be replaced with split poles
if we can get hold of some.
