Cockle Shell Bay
★★★★☆
(320)
Cockle shell bay is one of our favourite dive sites, normally dived as a drift dive on left shoulder. Inside the bay we have small rocky boulders while outside we do have a wall covered in nice corals. Between 22 and 24m there’s a nice forest of Green gorgonia.
Honeycomb moray eels are an easy spot here, in days with good visibility rays can be spotted, and in summer time it’s a hot spot for whalesharks.
