It is a beautiful reef dive that begins at approximately 15 meters (50 ft) of depth. The site is characterized by large coral formations (“bommies”) that descend to around 24 meters (80 ft).
These coral structures are separated by wide sandy channels, typically 15–20 (60ft) meters apart, creating a landscape of coral tower
