Community notes to help plan your visit.
Scuba Diving
This is a good scuba site for disciplined teams because the long ridge and offset buoy reward a planned route rather than freestyle wandering.
Freediving
Not a freedive-first site; the structure is built around a managed boat dive at depth.
Snorkeling
Not a snorkel-first site; the interesting terrain is underwater at dive depth.
