About Kariparapa Point
This site features a long rocky ridge extending out from shore, beginning around 12 m and sloping down to about 25 m before dropping deeper. Along the deeper section there is a swim-through, while closer to land there are large boulders and a small cavern to explore. It is known for varied reef life, including nudibranchs and black urchins, and the chance of seeing less common fish such as toadstool grouper and yellow-banded perch.
