This dive site is located on the southern end of an island, specifically on a south-west facing wall adjacent to a rock mass. The wall extends from 15 meters down to 30 meters. This area offers excellent opportunities for observing invertebrate life, including colorful nudibranchs, graceful Spanish Dancers, and encrusting soft corals. Notably, it's home to the Blue Lipped anemonefish, an endemic species found only in the Solitary Islands region. At the base of the wall, there’s a chance to spot a Duncker's Pipehorse, adding to the dive's potential for unique encounters.
