    StandoutExceptional marine biodiversity

    Airport Wall lives up to its name, a gentle coral slope dropping from 8m down to 25m. We’ve had good luck spotting seahorses tucked into the corals, and sometimes frogfish if you’re really looking closely. It’s a solid pick for newer divers or those who enjoy a slower pace, giving you plenty of time to hunt for macro life.
