StandoutExceptional marine biodiversity

South Twin offers a gentle drift along a sloping reef, suitable for intermediate divers. We often see schools of yellow snapper and barracuda hanging out in the blue. Keep an eye on the cracks in the rock for resting nurse sharks, and we’ve occasionally spotted leopard sharks on the sand patches. It’s a good spot for a relaxed second dive.
