About this dive site

This dive site is centered around a massive anchor, resting on an underwater hill at a depth of 32 meters. This historical artifact, believed to have been there for at least 50 years, is now completely covered in vibrant coral growth, transforming it into a living reef structure. Divers navigate down to the peak of this underwater hill, where the anchor serves as a focal point amidst a thriving marine ecosystem.

Marine life is abundant here, with common sightings of snappers, trevallys, barracudas, and various pelagic fish attracted by the open water currents. The lush coral growth on the anchor and surrounding hill provides a rich habitat for smaller reef inhabitants, while at the base of the hill, divers may discover a unique, all-white, tree-like sea nettle.

The best time to visit this site is crucial to consider, as currents can be quite strong during certain times of the month, offering exhilarating drift dives for experienced divers. Freedivers with advanced skills can also enjoy the site, especially during calmer periods. Divers should be mindful of depth and current conditions and plan their dive accordingly.
