About this dive site
This dive site is located inside the North Channel. It’s particularly noteworthy during the manta season, which runs from November through April, offering a good opportunity to observe these magnificent creatures. A prominent feature is a substantial coral block known as a manta cleaning station, situated at approximately 14 meters deep with its top reaching 10 meters below the surface. This area attracts a diverse array of fish species. Divers are advised to maintain a distance of 2-3 meters from the cleaning station when mantas are present, allowing them ample space to glide above. Visibility is good in this location.
