About this dive site
This dive site features a fringing coral reef located along the northeastern tip of an island. The reef is characterized by a diverse array of corals, including branching, massive, and encrusting varieties, which adorn the rocky edges of the landward side. The reef’s edge begins near the shoreline with shallow sandy conditions and gradually descends to deeper water as it approaches the point. Scattered bommies are present offshore, offering opportunities for exploring marine life. A variety of interesting creatures can be found amongst these bommies and along the seabed between the reef edge.
