This dive site, Sunken Island, is an underwater mount located in the open sea. The top of the island sits approximately 25 meters below the surface. Divers should be aware that this location presents a significant challenge due to strong currents present in the area. Exploring deeper into the blue depths offers the chance to encounter larger marine life, including schools of jack fish, batfish, and occasional sharks and pelagic fish.
