overview, location                                     

Depth:  10 -30 m

Fish Live: Jacks, fusiliers, big tunas, batfish, longnose emperors, families of napoleons, big turtles, eagle rays, whitetip reef sharks, many groupers, moray eels

Coral Growth: beautiful soft corals flourish on the reef slope; reef flat nearly 100% covered with nice stone corals

North-east monsoon season mostly ingoing current, reef more likely to the left; as here you aren’t entering the channel, but follow only the outside; the best is, to stay just below the edge; with strong current you have to paddle all the way, but you’ll find a great fish life; don’t dive to deep, as the edge never comes higher up than 10 m, otherwise you get a decompression time; best diving is between 10 and 20 m

Experience Level: difficult, especially with stronger current

Features: Lots of traces from building wave breakers and over-water bungalows

Specialty: sometimes there are big families of napoleons; many morays on the reef slope

South-west monsoon season: mostly outgoing current, reef more likely to the right; stay just below the edge during the dive; sometimes there is a strong current pulling you downwards, in this case it is better to stay on the reef top; don’t dive to deep, as the edge never comes higher up than 10 m, otherwise you will get a decompression time; best diving between 10 and 20 m; at many points you find overhangs
