Safety notes

The deeper maze can be disorienting and is for experienced divers. Maintain wall reference, planned depth and guide contact; avoid enclosed or overhead routes beyond training.

Dive tips

  • Follow the local guide’s site- and tide-specific briefing.
  • Agree a maximum depth within certification limits; the published site range is 5–35 m.
  • Maintain neutral buoyancy and avoid contact with coral, artificial structures and the seabed.
  • The deeper maze can be disorienting and is for experienced divers. Maintain wall reference, planned depth and guide contact; avoid enclosed or overhead routes beyond training.
  • 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.
