About this dive site
This dive site offers a diverse and rewarding experience for divers of all levels. Located just 10 minutes from shore, it features depths ranging from 7 to 25 meters. The site is known for its strong currents, which can vary significantly; be prepared for conditions ranging from calm to challenging. Expect an abundance of marine life, including turtles, giant pufferfish, nudibranchs, frogfish, octopus, and cuttlefish. Highlights include large pinnacles, sandy gullies, stingrays, and a remarkable variety of macro invertebrates. You'll find a fascinating underwater world starting at approximately 7 meters where garden eels, sand lizardfish, frogfish, flounder, and sea cucumbers thrive. Continuing eastward takes you through a ‘garden’ area dropping to 15 meters, often populated with blue spotted stingrays and smaller marine species. Along sloping valleys, batfish can be observed alongside octopus and cuttlefish. The pinnacles are teeming with scorpion fish, puffers, schools of tropical reef fish, and huge pink barrel sponges – frequently hosting sleepy turtles resting on their surfaces. Each visit offers the potential to discover something new and exciting.
