About this dive site

This dive site, known as Dragon’s Lair, is a unique experience centered around a spectacular coral formation resembling a dragon's head. The site offers a challenging but rewarding dive due to its intricate network of tunnels and drops on both sides. Divers will navigate through the ‘dragon’s body,’ exploring a diverse terrain before reaching the impressive head for a memorable photo opportunity. A return swim along the back of the dragon leads you safely back to the boat. While buddy diving is recommended, following a guide is highly advised to fully appreciate the site's complexity and ensure no details are missed. The boat often moors over a shallow reef – typically no deeper than 20 feet – providing an excellent active safety stop, allowing divers to continue exploring rather than simply hovering. This dive offers a dynamic experience and a chance to witness stunning underwater formations.
