About This Dive Spot

This dive site sits within a protected marine sanctuary where fishing is prohibited. It features a coral garden on a shallow plateau before transitioning into a dramatic drop-off. The reef begins around 5–10 m and then falls to about 30 m along a wall with canyon-like contours. Giant clams are a highlight, and green turtles are commonly seen on the shallows; the wall and sandy areas offer macro opportunities, with chances of pelagic encounters out in the blue.
