About a 30-minute boat ride to the north is this nice, easy dive site for all experience levels. The dive starts at about 10 meters and then slopes down to a sandy bottom around 20 meters. Not far from that you will find another reef covered in beautiful leather corals.
Many garden eels and stingrays nap in the sand, often cleaned by cleaner wrasse. Look out for leaf fish hidden among the coral. Sometimes even mantas use this reef.
