The Dive:
The vertical wall rises up to approx 60 metres high and the water is clear. The bottom starts at a depth of 30 metres on the northern side of the bay, dropping down to 50m after approx 100 metres. The steep coastal rocks form an impressive underwater wall characterized by numerous cavities and housing a number of fissures. The site is renowned for the cave in the area. The walls of the cave are covered with colourful sponges and coral and this helps it to make this a very impressive dive site.
