About this dive site

This dive site offers a pleasant beach dive experience. The dive begins from the shoreline, heading south for approximately 150 meters until reaching a nearby reef. From the reef, divers will turn left and follow a rocky coastline interspersed with sandy patches. This is considered a safe dive, with a maximum depth of 7 meters. It's recommended to conduct this dive during slack water and utilize a submerged marker buoy (SMB) for navigation. The area provides a relatively shallow and accessible underwater environment suitable for divers who prefer gentle explorations.
