This dive site features a large submerged limestone pinnacle rising from a sandy seabed, often nicknamed 'Leopard Shark Reef'. It is renowned as a resting spot for leopard sharks, which are frequently seen on the sand at the base of the rock. The pinnacle itself is vibrant, blanketed in purple soft corals and sea anemones, attracting a dense population of reef fish.
