This dive site features two buoys marking its location: one situated within the area at 30 feet and another positioned along the reef edge at 20 feet. The area is characterized by a central bowl of mixed sand, cobble, and coral extending to approximately 50 feet. This bowl creates channels and swim-throughs that offer intriguing passages with shadowy overhangs and surprisingly dark holes. Evidence suggests this location was once home to an ancient waterfall, adding to its unique character. The reef structures exhibit a 'spooky' effect due to the way they partially overlap, allowing light to penetrate into deeper waters below. This site is known for hosting Large Eyed Toadfish as well as Spotted Scorpion Fish, often found hidden within crevices and cracks. Due to the generally dim lighting and shadowy areas, it’s highly recommended to bring a torch on this dive. It's considered a favorite spot.
