About This Dive Spot
Pinnacles consists of two distinct underwater formations, with the larger pinnacle starting at a depth of 6 meters and descending to 60 meters. It is connected to a smaller pinnacle that begins at 18 meters and reaches a maximum depth of 30 meters. The site is accessible by boat and is best dived during incoming tides, which typically enhance visibility and current strength, leading to increased marine activity and vibrant colors. The top of the larger pinnacle is adorned with a dense carpet of anemones, which host numerous anemone fish. Divers may also encounter barracuda, bluefin trevally, octopus, ornate ghost pipefish, nudibranchs, and occasionally hammerhead sharks.
