About The Bat Cave

This is a dive that can only be done when there is little or no surge. We anchor away from the cave then make a short swim over rocks into a low tunnel. Light filters in from the top of the cave. Swimming down a narrow, but short passage we see the cave with light filtering in from the cave exit. The cave is only partially underwater. Once in the cave we surface and have a look around. Thousands of tiny bats cling to the cave walls and flutter with annoyment at our bubbles rising to the surface and disturbing their slumber. The dive continues outside the cave. Lettuce leaf slugs are common in the area and it is worth searching for critters on the way to the soldierfish cave. At the other end of the small bay in about 30-35 feet of water is another tiny cave. A dense school of blackbar soldierfish in formation school in front of the cave opening. Behind them, a wall of sponges provides a colorful background for photos.
