Little Fistral is a shallow reef site with a sandy bottom, located off the western side of a headland. It features interesting rock formations and includes swim-throughs. It is described as suitable for entry-level training and snorkelling, though marine life is said to be limited due to exposure to easterly swells.

Safety Notes
