The shallow clear blue sea with rich marine life is the perfect choice of nature lovers for fishing, snorkeling, diving, kayaking, sailing, trekking or just for relaxing. This is the most popular dive spot in the area and lies just off the coast. With shallow fringing reef and coral gardens, it is home to a wide variety of marine fishes. Large schools of snappers and fusiliers can be seen and the hard coral is in good condition and relatively unspoilt. There is also a shallow here bay ideal for snorkellers where a sandy bottom is peppered with coral outcrops. Keep your eyes open for large rays that often frequent the area.
