About this dive site

It's more a spearfishing place because you can get very deep once crossed the shallow corals. The adventure begins at the shore, where the water is surprisingly shallow—only about knee-high. A short swim brings you to the edge of an underwater shelf, where the seafloor suddenly drops off to a depth of 8 meters. This dramatic drop-off is home to an abundance of marine life. You might spot pufferfish with their patterned skin and comical expressions, or the slender, camouflaged trumpetfish hovering vertically among the coral formations.

Super shallow water near the shore, which becomes very deep all of a sudden once you are out there. Viz wasn’t great. But it’s fun to drink from the fontaines!
