This site is located at one end of the tidal cape. Anchors are placed at four main locations from the shallow area. The shallow area is shallow, about 8 meters below the anchors. There are clusters of white corals and care should be taken not to touch the corals. The depth at the other anchor points is usually about 15 meters. This site is dotted with sand and roots, so it is important to maintain neutral buoyancy to avoid sand uplift and to protect the habitat of the creatures. There is little current and the point is easy to dive.
Green turtles can often be observed resting in the shallow Shikoro coral zone. Various kinds of wrasse, which gave the point its name, can be observed all year round. Macro creatures such as jawfish and seahorse can be seen in the sandy areas, and schools of snappers can be seen in the coral reefs. Solas snappers can be seen schooling at the tops of the roots and in the shallows.
