Red Pillar / Peel Island Reef

★★★★☆ (636)

Also known as Red Pillar, this small dive site is located just off the Peel Island. Because it is in the channel it can sometimes experience some strong current, but this makes for a energetic dive.

A sunken scooter and bycyle, along with old scuba tanks, compressor frames and bottles has made a great artificial reef for smaller fish to hide in.
