    StandoutExceptional marine biodiversity

    Dixon's in the Andamans offers a relaxed dive, good for stretching out your bottom time. We've often found ourselves drifting along here, spotting things like the distinctive Variable Stromb inching across the sand or the subtle beauty of a Savigny's Brittle Star tucked into a crevice. Look closely, and you'll catch the Linear bell hydroids waving in the gentle current, alongside the common Blue Green Chromis flitting amongst the patches of Paddle Grass and Cymodocea seagrass. It’s a pleasant, easy dive, probably best for those who enjoy taking it slow and observing the smaller, more intricate life.
