About this dive site

This dive site offers a sheltered bay with a rocky feature. The top of the rock is at 8 meters, and the seabed descends to 28 meters. This provides ample space for divers to explore within less than 18 meters. There's an excellent swim-through area available. Due to its sheltered nature, it’s protected from north and west winds, making it a consistent diving location.
