A great place to dive from. The initial dive entry point gives you access to a minimum of 6 different sites depending on experience. This means that no matter how many divers seem to be entering the water with you, each dive site is never crowded, giving you lots of time to try and catch a good photo or just enjoy the large amount of marine life that is with you as soon as you enter the water. Visability is always good, varrying from 10-30 meters and with water temperatures not droping below 17 degrees even in the coldest months and reaching as high as a warm 25 degrees in the summer months it is a very enjoyable place to dive.
Marine life to see includes all the Ray family (even the big Manta on very rare occasions), Moray Eels, Dolphins, Nudibranches, multi-colored corals and algaes, shrimp, cuttlefish, seahorse, and nearly all the Atlantic species of fish there is on any given dive you take.

Andrew Paul CunliffeWhile diving at 20meters, I caught movement in the top corner of my vision. It was an young Electric ray that swam overhead giving a semi silhouette to the photo, used camara flash on soft to catch some details
