    StandoutExceptional marine biodiversity

    Blowing Rock is a volcanic pinnacle that starts around 10m and drops to 35m, making it a good intermediate dive. You'll often find nurse sharks resting in crevices and reef sharks patrolling the deeper sections. Eagle rays glide by regularly, and we’ve spotted interesting smaller stuff like pygmy tonguefish and goldspot gobies on the rock face. It’s a solid dive for those who appreciate pelagics and unique macro life without extreme depths.
