Time to visit: April - September
Divers come here for the tremendous
selecti on
of adventurous swimthroughs provided by large
archways, caverns, caves and crevices which
cut through the matrix of submerged rocks.
There are many groupers, blue-spotted ribbontail
rays and yellowmargin triggerfish, which can
be aggressive - especially if protecting their
nests during the spawning season.
This is a good place to see green and hawksbill
turtles. Green Rock makes an interesting night-dive.
The triggerfish secure themselves in the smaller
crevices for the night and the parrotfish
sleep in their cocoons while the nocturnal
community comes to life.
