About this dive site

This dive site offers an exciting drift diving experience along a mostly steep sloping reef. The reef is richly covered in low-growing hard corals and sponges, creating a vibrant underwater landscape. Keep an eye out for overhangs adorned with Gorgonian sea fans – these areas are often frequented by large fish seeking shelter from the current. You might encounter reef sharks, turtles, Sweetlips fish, and occasionally even dugongs if you’re lucky! The dive offers two distinct experiences depending on the tide. During a rising tide, you'll find yourself in a beautiful, protected coral garden teeming with barracudas, sharks, and turtles. Conversely, during a falling tide, Mandarin fish, turtles, and Giant Morays can be spotted while completing your safety stop.
