    StandoutExceptional marine biodiversity

    Fish Slate is a calm, shallow spot, perfect for divers just starting out. At a flat 10 meters, it’s an ideal place to practice buoyancy and get comfortable in the water. You'll likely see smaller reef fish darting around the soft corals. We think it's a great training ground for new divers before heading to more challenging sites.
