The Arch

This dive site is characterized by a remarkable gravity-defying arch, easily accessible from the dock within a 10-minute boat ride. The arch itself offers fantastic photo opportunities – exploring its multiple passages allows for a complete appreciation of its structure. Beneath the arch, explore the underside to discover Red Encrusting Algae and delicate Purple Lace Coral. Cracks and crevices provide habitat for juvenile fish and Banded Coral Shrimp, identifiable by their distinctive long, striped claws, often visible amongst rocky alcoves. A scenic route back to shore winds through narrow cuts and channels between the arch and a small pin – navigating this path provides a beautiful finish to your dive. On top of a mini wall, you’ll find impressive hard coral growth including Grooved Brain Corals, which resemble their name suggests. These corals create a vibrant underwater landscape.
