Dive-site story
Located off the High Island Reservoir in Sai Kung, this site is defined by the massive concrete dolosse that form the outer breakwater. Below the surface, these interlocked concrete anchors create a labyrinth of artificial crevices and overhangs transitioning to a rocky and sandy seabed. Divers navigate among the stacked blocks to find macro critters and schooling coastal fish sheltering from open sea swells.
