About this dive site

This dive site begins in a sandy channel, often hosting schools of barracuda or trevally. The dive continues towards substantial boulder rock formations, providing habitat for giant cuttlefish, octopus, and bigfin reef squid. Gentle drifts over large flat table corals and rounded barrel sponges are possible, with the chance to spot an eagle ray gliding by. As you descend toward shallow rocky areas, a vibrant ecosystem emerges, characterized by shimmering schools of fish feeding in the currents.
