    Hammerhead Rock, off Taiwan's Northeast Coast, is a good intermediate dive. The site is mostly rock formations dropping to 26 meters, with visibility that can sometimes surprise you. We've seen schooling fish here and the occasional pelagic passing through, though hammerheads are rare. It's a decent spot if you're in the area and looking for a straightforward dive with some current.
