About this dive site

This dive site, Jackfish Alley, offers a pleasant drift experience suitable for divers with reasonable air consumption. Located towards Shark Observatory, the dive typically begins with a short swim through a small cave within the wall. The terrain gradually transitions into a substantial plateau separated from the main reef by a sandy channel – the source of the alley’s name. Divers can explore this area extensively, venturing out to a satellite reef or following the bottom of the channel where white-tip reef sharks are occasionally observed sleeping. Expect varied topography and a gentle current.
