Features:	A large reef rich with life Operators work mainly in back reef area, all have similar dives Dives over staghorn thickets on sand that slopes and drops to 22m. Explore around the bommies or stay close to the reef edge. Bommies have great swim throughs and are worth exploring Look out for rays buried in the sand! Gullies in the reef side are excellent spots to observe fish Large bommies nearly e\reach the surface, so you can dive your preferred depth. At night see nudibranchs, crabs, worms and outstretch coral polyps. There is an abundance of hard coral in good condition and well interspersed. Damselfish hide in the soft coral and dash out to catch planktonic food Wrasse, parrotfish, emperors, butterflyfish and surgeonfish are common. A school of grey reef sharks have been spotted here, but you're more likely to see a white tip shark. This is probably best as a macrophotography site.
