This dive site, Gylly Beach, offers a unique underwater experience. The area features a small seagrass bed and two reefs: a north reef and a south reef. A rocky reef section is covered with kelp and seaweed, creating varied terrain between the sandy bottom areas of the two reefs. It's known for its cephalopod activity, including bobtail squid, cuttlefish, and common squid. The combination of seagrass beds, diverse reef structures, and abundant marine life makes it a rewarding dive.
