Dive-site story
Situated southeast of the main island, this uninhabited islet features steep drop-offs and healthier hard coral cover than most mainland sites. The leeward side provides sheltered conditions with sloping reefs leading down to vertical walls undercut by small caves. Strong offshore currents wash the outer edges, drawing pelagic species and fueling lush gorgonian growth across the drop-off.
Steep wall drop-offs covered in dense sponge and soft coral formations
Frequent encounters with resident green sea turtles resting on reef plateaus
Clear blue water with regular sightings of roaming pelagics in the blue
