Compact Bass Point reef hole with strong macro life
Compact Bass Point reef hole with strong macro life
Hole in the Wall is a compact Bass Point reef opening with a short overhead swim-through and a strong macro payoff. The site is shallow enough to stay approachable, but the entry and exit only work when the sea is very calm, so it feels more like a careful reef traverse than an open-water cruise. After dark or in clean water, the hole fills with fish life and small critters that reward a slow, controlled dive.
Site Conditions
Safety Notes
Treat the hole as overhead territory and keep the group tight; the site only fits a few divers at once, and surge can move the entrance and exit.
Access Restrictions
Only diveable in very calm conditions; the hole is tight and only fits about 3-4 divers.
