As you descend into the crystal-clear waters, you'll be greeted by a deep sheer wall that reaches depths of 25-30 meters.

Rays gracefully glide through the waters, while lobsters scuttle along, adding to the spectacle. The deep caverns also offer a haven for macro life, with countless species waiting to be discovered.
Venturing further, you'll uncover a thriving underwater community. Stingrays, white tip sharks, and lobsters continue to make appearances in the small caves, providing an exhilarating sight. Above the reef, you'll witness schools of fusiliers and snappers, creating a beautiful ballet of fish.
