About this dive site

This dive site, known as Lighthouse, is situated at the end of Nha Trang and is renowned as Vietnam's premier deep diving location. It features a unique double pinnacle formation that allows experienced divers to descend to depths of up to 40 meters, though the primary dive profile often centers around the shallower 24-meter maximum. Navigation involves exploring the walls and surrounding areas of these impressive rock structures.

Marine life at Lighthouse is abundant and diverse. Divers can expect to find beautiful soft corals, including vibrant Gorgonians, adorning the pinnacle walls. The site is a macro photographer's paradise, boasting a remarkable variety of nudibranchs. Furthermore, there is a possibility of encountering larger fish species, adding an element of excitement to the dive.

The best time to visit Nha Trang for diving is generally from April to August, when the weather is calm and visibility is at its best. Divers should be comfortable with deep diving techniques and potential currents to fully explore the site's potential. Freedivers with advanced skills can also enjoy the depth and topography of the pinnacles.
