The reef is shallow, reaching a maximum depth of 9 meters, making it perfect for those new to diving. Navigation is straightforward, with the reef generally following a gently sloping profile. There are no specific historical stories attached to the reef itself, but its accessibility and rich marine life have made it a popular spot for divers over the years. The marine life encountered here is quite diverse for such a shallow site. Divers can expect to see a variety of fish, including jackfish, salpas, sargos, groupers, and mullets.
