About this dive site

This dive site, known as Battee Gla, features a dramatic underwater ridge extending from the surface to depths exceeding 40 meters. The area boasts impressive rock formations, including pinnacles and swim-throughs that create a truly spectacular diving experience. Due to consistent currents flowing over the ridge, it offers an unusual sensation akin to flying above a mountain range on a hang glider or small plane. Visibility is typically excellent, allowing divers to fully appreciate this unique underwater landscape. It's important to note that strong currents are present.
