This dive site offers a unique experience. The entry is exceptionally easy, located directly from the sandy beach between the fishermen’s boats – remember to respect their presence as they have been here for a long time. However, be prepared for an extended swim out to the reef; it can be quite lengthy! During this swim-out, you'll encounter fascinating critters inhabiting the shallow, sandy area, potentially diverting you from exploring the gently sloping wall filled with diverse hard and soft corals. Keep an eye out for seahorses, a remarkable variety of reef fish, and spotted eagle rays gliding through the vast white sand. Above the surface, turtles often nest in a protected corner of the beach. The reef itself boasts plenty of marine life. It’s a good spot to look up as turtles may be hanging around.
