Description: There are numerous locations that you would want to visit during this dive. You could start this dive by descending down to the cavern located 27 meters below, which serves as a hideout for nurse sharks. Follow it up by maneuvering around the saddle and exploring the abundant coral formations that then provide cover for the gray reef sharks lurking around the corners along with the fast flowing currents of the saddle. You could move to the top of the saddle after at 14 meters and look at the huge coral tables around. You are likely to be accompanied by some humphead wrasses, and if you keep an eye cast out to the open ocean, you will possibly see some eagle rays, large schools of red soldier fish, sweetlips and even the occasional sea turtle. Grouper are also seen in this excellent site.
