    Depth: 10-115 ft. (3-35m)


This dive site is known for
large sea fans and beautiful
coral reef. While the site
may beg for wide angle,
divers find pygmy seahorses
here. Hippocampus denise
and Hippocampus
bargibanti are found in the
gorgonians that line the
walls and outcrops. This is
also a great sites for
colorful nudibranchs and
beautiful scorpionfish. For wide
angle, look for coral clusters and


soft coral formations that thrive in
the consistent ocean currents that
feed this site.
