The reef is a vertical wall situated near Ngemelis Island. In about 2m/6ft depth, four blue water holes in the reef surface serve as entryways into a large cavern. There are 2 exits from the cavern, on the front of the reef divers will spot a small and a large openings. When diving to the bottom of this 24m/78ft deep cavern, divers will find a large cave which is usually flooded with rays of sunlight due to the outer reefs being open. It is an amazing sight: each hole on the ceiling seems to be painted light blue, while the large opening - a deep dark blue. The Blue Holes are also a starting point for the Blue Corner dive.
