The natural slope continues far beyond recreational depth. This public profile is capped at 30 m; divers must plan within certification, gas and no-decompression limits.

Dive tips

  • Follow the local guide’s site- and tide-specific briefing.
  • Agree a maximum depth within certification limits; the published site range is 3–30 m.
  • Maintain neutral buoyancy and avoid contact with coral, artificial structures and the seabed.
  • The natural slope continues far beyond recreational depth. This public profile is capped at 30 m; divers must plan within certification, gas and no-decompression limits.
  • Treat wildlife encounters as possible, never guaranteed, and give animals space.

Underwater photography

A flexible setup works best: use a macro lens for small subjects on sand, rubble and coral, or wide angle for the broader reef structure. Maintain stable trim, avoid stirring sediment and never move or touch wildlife for a photograph.
