Tower is a spectacular dive site that gets its name from a rock formation above the surface. The average depth at this site is 5-30m/16-100ft with water visibility around 20m/65ft. This location is a shore dive, where divers enter the water and descend to around 5m/16ft, where they enter a cave which goes through the reef for several meters. The tunnel then opens into a three sided canyon in the reef wall and drops away steeply. Besides beautiful landscape, divers can explore lots of marine life.
