Avatiu Drop Off
★★★★★
(4)
This dive site is located just to the West of Avatiu Harbour. The site features a nice drop-off starting at around 18 metres and dropping off straight into the Abyss. Depth 12 - 40m
Fish life is very good in the shallows and there is a good chance to see bigger predators when following the edge of the drop off.
