Sheltered, gently sloping reef — ideal for training and relaxed dives, all levels
A long, banana-shaped fringing reef that curves along the coast, giving easy, sheltered diving over a gentle coral slope. Shallow depths and calm conditions make it a favourite for check dives, courses and unhurried second dives, while the healthy hard and soft corals and steady stream of reef fish keep it interesting for everyone. A dependable, feel-good site suitable for divers of all levels.
