A 20 minute boat ride along the coastal waterway from the Underwater Centre will bring you to this large protected bay surrounded by granitic rocks and palm trees. The water is calm and current free and is ideal for snorkelling and diving excursions .
Passangers onboard ''Reef Diver ''
The reef is edged with white sand and student divers can safely stay in the shallow sloping coral section of 6 to 10 meters before dropping down the ''wall '' of coral to 18 meters were they may meet the other certified divers There is always lots to see as soon as you get into the water ....you are surrounded immediately by sargeant majors and pygmy batfish soon to be followed by the large batfish !! This is a Marine Park protected area and home to several hawksbill and green turtles . How do you tell the difference.......??? just look at the shape of the beak. Long and very pointed is the Hawksbill ( just like the parrot) round and smooth edged is the Green.
Trips here are scheduled on a regular basis so just ask at the Dive Centre reception desk when you come to visit us
Healthy corals are seen everywere with small green chromis darting in and out , bat fish follow you around for most of the dive and you have to look twice at the needle fish which are always there. Its such a great dive you have to come see it for yourself!
