About Paola Cavern
Paola Cavern is an advanced Rhodes cavern dive in the Anthony Quinn Bay area, set on a steep drop-off. The main draw is the cavern opening and the way sunlight cuts through the deeper section. It suits confident scuba divers who can hold trim, follow a briefed route, and keep the overhead part conservative. Marine life is usually the supporting act: groupers, moray eels, squid, scorpionfish, nudibranchs, and schools of fish.
