Bloody Bay Wall

Dragon Bay is one of those spots we always return to for a relaxed, shallow dive. It’s a great easy drift, if there’s a current at all, and it’s perfect for stretching out your bottom time. The site is a real mix, starting with seagrass beds where we’ve often spotted lizardfish patiently waiting, then shifting to sand patches riddled with garden eels. Our favorite part, though, is the small, upright barge at about 12 meters. It’s covered in purple sea plumes that wave gently, creating a lovely contrast against the sandy bottom. You can spend ages around it, poking into crevices for blennies and the occasional spotted trunkfish. Beyond the barge, the reef islands have plenty of coral patches. We usually find clouds of French grunts hanging out, and if you look closely, you might spot a white pygmy venus or a dubious cerith tucked away. Visibility typically hovers around 15 meters, which is perfectly clear for this kind of site. It’s a fantastic place for macro photographers or anyone who just wants to take it slow and really observe the smaller stuff. We love it for a second dive, or when we just want a chill afternoon underwater.
