Key Hazards

Boat trafficSharp coral

Safety Notes

Watch the drop-off edge, keep buoyancy tight around fire-coral patches and pinnacles, and stay clear of mooring lines and passing boats.

Avoid standing on coral blocks or fire-coral patches, and respect moorings and local reef-protection etiquette.

Local Intel For Fiddle Garden

Community notes to help plan your visit.

Scuba

A simple local-boat dive with a mooring option or mild drift line, following the sandy plateau to the pinnacles and drop-off.

Freedive

Freediving is only practical on the shallow plateau in calm water; the drop-off and pinnacle line are better left to scuba.

Snorkel

Snorkeling works only on the shallow plateau; the most interesting structure sits farther out on the edge and is better appreciated on scuba.
