This dive site offers a remarkably gentle experience, starting at just 5 feet and gradually descending to 50 feet. The seabed is sandy, providing an excellent backdrop for observing abundant marine life. Coral growth is exceptionally healthy, complemented by a diverse population of tropical fish. A highlight of this location is the frequent presence of spotted eagle rays – these graceful creatures are known to be quite relaxed and often approach divers, creating unforgettable encounters. You might also spot sea turtles, octopuses, and moray eels exploring the reef. Occasionally, large schools of porkfish and snappers can be found on the sandy bottom. During certain seasons, you may even have the chance to witness the magnificent sounds of humpback whales singing. This site is suitable for divers of all levels, from beginners to experienced enthusiasts.
