Independent site index confirming Heron’s Wall.
A shallow-coral wall dive with blue-water action and strong photo opportunities.
About Heron’s Wall
Boat-access wall and reef dive in New Georgia, with standout hard and soft corals in the shallows and strong photo opportunities near the top of the site. The payoff is often out in the blue, where sharks, eagle rays, schooling jackfish, and barracuda move through the water. It suits divers who want a shallow reef start, a wall profile, and a plan that leaves room for pelagics rather than a pure coral cruise.
