Although this island was hit hard by the tsunami this is still a great dive. The reef wall is in perfect condition. Visibility is usually about 15 meters but occasionally it is possible to see the sea floor (at about 50 meters) from the surface. Occupants of the reef wall include parrotfish, damselfish, snappers, and angelfish. One can also see a few species of moray eel and ribbon eels. The wall is covered with many sponges and soft corals and resident colourful crinoids sometimes jump off the wall in order to attach themselves to the wetsuits of divers who get too close. Red and blue sea apples are also common. There are fantastic gorgonian sea fans at this site, the largest found at depths of 35 meters and deeper. This dive is great as a drift dive because of the strong currents.
