Dive-site story
Located off Guishan Island, this offshore site takes its name from dense expanses of soft corals that carpet the volcanic boulders like heads of broccoli. Divers drift along rocky ridges shaped by past volcanic activity, exploring reef structures interspersed with sandy channels where macro critters shelter from open currents.
Extensive meadows of fleshy soft corals blanketing volcanic rocks
Macro photography opportunities among reef crevices and crinoids
Occasional encounters with passing pelagic fish and sea turtles
