About this dive site

This dive site offers a convenient access point for divers of varying experience levels. It's a short walk from the shoreline to explore both reef and muck diving locations. The depths range from 10 to 25 feet, however, the dive site is subject to tidal influences which can affect conditions. This makes planning crucial.
