Descend down the anchor line until you reach a depth of 10 meters, where you'll discover the first of three awe-inspiring canyons. These canyons showcase a multitude of large gorgonians carpeting the cliffs, extending all the way down to 40 meters. Despite the depth, this dive is suitable for beginners as the rocky ridges offer a safe and enjoyable experience. Keep an eye out for barracudas and the vibrant presence of small damselfish.

If luck is on your side, you may even witness a magnificent sunfish gliding gracefully by during the appropriate season. For more experienced divers, the last canyon presents an opportunity to explore a hole at 28 meters, providing a glimpse to the other side of the rock formation. As you make your way towards the north wall of the reef, near the anchor line, it is recommended to venture into the slightly shallower waters towards the end of your dive. Here, you will be captivated by the sight of numerous yellow crusted anemones, intricate nudibranchs, fascinating lobsters, and occasionally a sea hare amidst the rugged wall.

Please exercise caution if there is a current present during your dive.
