About This Dive Spot

Divers typically start their exploration at this drop-off, moving through the surrounding crevices and onto a sandy seabed that extends from the base of the coral at around 35 meters. This site is known for sightings of large marine species, including bull rays and Japanese eagle rays in the sandy areas. Additionally, encounters with Napoleons and various large fish are common. As divers ascend towards shallower depths, they are likely to see loggerhead turtles, green turtles, and hawksbill turtles.
