    StandoutExceptional marine biodiversity

    Gumi Cenik 1 isn't your flashy drift dive, but it's a solid pick for those who enjoy slowing down. Drop in and you'll find a gentle sandy slope, interspersed with patches of coral and sponge growth, particularly shallower. We usually find ourselves poking around the small irregularities on the bottom – that’s where the real action is. Look closely and you’re likely to spot a Banded Blenny peering out, or maybe a Northern Bicoloured Triplefin darting around. It’s a site where patience pays off; the nudibranchs are often out, and we’ve even come across small frogfish here. Maxing out at 18 meters, it’s a calm macro hunt, perfect for photographers or anyone keen to really observe the smaller stuff.

    Safety Notes

    Drift dive - carry a surface marker buoy (SMB) and stay with your group. Brief the current direction before entry.
