Sandy’s Plateau

★★★★☆ (400)

Lots of hard coral including Elkhorn and Pillar coral, as well as many sponges and soft corals. A small overhang in the shallows often shelters schools of grunts. The dive site is between Jan Thiel beach and Mambo Beach and not accessible from shore.

Between the many different species of hard coral, you will find Spotted Drums, Trunkfish, Filefish (Slender, Scrawled and Whitespotted), Octopus and the occasional seahorse.
