This site is born from the millenial growth of the coral reef, giving birth to taller walls and a wide and a narrow canyon where a shark sometimes comes to rest. Following the walls while hunting lionfish will lead you to two islands surrounded by big specimens of barrel sponges.
Lionfish and a shark come here to hide from the divers so prepare for ceviche. Queen triggerfish are common there and big barrel sponges make for a majestic landscape.
