About Robs Bottom

Robs Bottom is a deep Tofo ridge dive reached by a southbound transfer from Tofo Beach through Whale Shark Alley. The ridge and surrounding wall are known for big marine life, especially small-eye stingrays, manta rays, reef sharks, whale sharks, and humpback whales, with overhangs and swim-throughs adding structure to the dive. It is an advanced site that rewards a guide who can read current and timing on the day.
