This is a series of walls, overhangs, ridges and
spectacular cliff-like formations that step off
to deep water in this area. You could potentially
make four different dives here depending on the
direction and strength of the current. Common to
the area are giant gorgonian fans, basket sponges,
soft tree corals and fields high whip corals along
with a great diversity of fish life. You may see
shoals of sweetlips, unicornfish, snapper, mackerel
and tuna. Currents can be strong so best to plan
the dives around slack tide. Again, this site is
only suitable for advanced and technical nitrox
diving due to the depth.
