This is a high quality drift dive along
the eastern part of Anda's reef quite


a bit north of the town. The average
depth is fairly deep at 82 ft. (25m)
or so. This dive has coral walls and
reefs and is done as a drift, so divers
must keep and eye on current
strength and look for up and down
currents. It is great for the numerous
pygmy seahorses that can be found
on the various sea fans. This site
also has a special feature that is for
advanced divers and guides usually
only let experienced diver try this.
At 105 ft. (31m) there is an entrance
into a cave. Having a light source is
obligatory to go inside. The wall
here isn’t so pretty but divers are
usually allowed a maximum of 8-10
minutes inside the cave to explore.
Look for lobsters, schools of fish
and bluespot stingrays!
After that head back up the wall
to look for more small stuff like the
various pygmies and anemones.
Nudibranchs also like to crawl
along this wall.
