MAGIC ROCK
Description:
This site is named after a rock at 15m in the coral shallow area and sand slope which is a cleaning station where many different creatures can be found! Divers head out over a sand plain, gently sloping to a fantastic wall which goes from 21 – 50 meters in depth. The sand is not very productive, but in the shallows there is an exceptional hard coral garden from the coast down to 10 meters in depth, which offers fine snorkeling, sheltered from the SE winds (June – Sept.), but subject to swell at times during the rainy season (Nov. – April).
Depth:
28 m maximum depth
Boat ride: 10 minute
Primary marine life:
good hard coral in shallows, sand slope, coral wall from 21-40 m.
