About this dive site
This dive site is Mingo Pass, a vibrant and shallow reef known for its abundant marine life. The reef gradually increases in density as you descend, creating a captivating underwater environment. It’s particularly rewarding to explore the area due to the presence of large black sea fans and huge barrel sponges that add visual interest. Keep an eye out for small fish – this location has a higher concentration of them than many others. You might also encounter eels, lobsters, and occasionally octopus. Notably, Mingo Pass is frequently visited by spotted eagle rays and schools of fish moving through the area.
