About this dive site

This dive site, known as 'The Wild side,' offers a unique diving experience due to its restricted access, only available in light northerly winds. The entire area is covered by abundant hard coral formations, minimizing the presence of sand patches and creating a diverse habitat. This environment supports a variety of crustaceans and nudibranchs. Night dives are exceptionally rewarding here, providing an opportunity to observe Nasau mud snails active at night, alongside numerous hawksbill turtles that frequently inhabit this reef section during daylight hours.
