This beautiful site is covered in brightly colored coral and is full of life. Weather and time of year can change this dive from a drift dive to a slow paced tour. Expect tons of fish and sea critters on this dive.
Minimum vegetation replaced with different colored feather stars gives the illusion of plant life. Some sea fans are present, but sparse.
