Tapu Canyon
★★★★★
(36)
A variation on the classic Tapu dive. A beautiful dive on a shallow coral plateau with a beautiful drop-off. You’ll cross several canyons, hence the name of the dive. As the site is close to the pass, it’s possible to see tuna.
A very large shoal of paddle perch can often be seen at a depth of 20m, as well as beautiful moray eels.
