Neil Island volcanic reef with corals, rare current, and easy navigation.
Neil Island volcanic reef with corals, rare current, and easy navigation.
K-Rock is a Neil Island boat dive built around a huge volcanic rock over a sandy bottom. It is a relaxed all-levels site with crevices, small overhangs, and plenty of reef life, and local operators often use it for newer divers because the current is usually light. The site rewards slow exploration more than big drift style diving, and it has the feel of a quiet navigation-friendly reef.
