About this dive site

This dive site offers a unique underwater experience. The topography features a gradual descent from 15 feet, transitioning through channels at 50 feet to a sandy bottom reaching 90 feet. It’s particularly suited for drift dives along the reef wall, often with a mild to moderate current that provides a relaxing experience. The shallow depth near the buoy – just 15 feet – makes it ideal for snorkelers and convenient safety stops. This site is accessible to divers of various levels due to its gradual slope and varying depths.
