At a maximum depth of 12 meters, it's an easy spot to practice skills or enjoy a longer bottom time. You’ll find a mix of smaller reef fish here, along with some soft corals that sway gently with the subtle currents. It’s a good warm-up dive for the week or a comfortable final dive before heading home.
