About this dive site

This dive site, known as 'Wall of the Gorgonians', is located on the western slope of an underwater crater, forming a unique valley. While no specific history is provided, its topography offers a distinct underwater experience, leading divers to explore its dramatic features.

The main draw of this site is the abundance of spectacular gorgonians, thriving from 22m down to 29m, with this dive focusing on depths up to 23m. Divers can also expect to encounter moray eels and conger eels hidden among the rocks and anemones. Keep an eye out for larger pelagic species, as tuna are often observed hunting in the open water above.

While no specific best time to visit is mentioned, the site is likely best enjoyed during the warmer months when marine activity is typically higher. For divers, focusing on buoyancy control will allow for close inspection of the gorgonians and macro life. Freedivers will find the depths suitable for exploring the deeper sections of the wall and interacting with the marine inhabitants.
