About this dive site

This dive site offers a captivating experience centered around an awesome pinnacle located near a small island. Typically, divers favor the side of the reef shielded from prevailing currents for optimal conditions. The western shore boasts a shallow coral garden teeming with life, including a fascinating population of baby Whitetip Reef sharks resting beneath table corals. You'll encounter a variety of marine species such as turtles, giant morays, and impressive Bumphead Parrotfish. Groupers are also commonly sighted, alongside the intriguing Banded Seakrait (a sea snake). The reef is a haven for smaller creatures like Napoleon Wrasse and whipcoral shrimps, and vibrant nudibranchs display striking colors throughout the area.
