Located at the northwest end of Ngemelis Island, the site has everything a diver could wish for. Tourists can dive this site from two different directions, depending on the current. Strong currents here attract large schools of fish and large pelagics (at a depth of 11m/36ft currents become even stronger). This dive begins on the top of a shallow coral shelf, that projects into the ocean and features vertical walls. After swimming along the lush soft coral wall for approximately 100m/300ft, divers will find a cavern with giant gorgonian sea fans
