    Information about the site
    The depth on this side ranges from 5m to 65 metres/ 200 feet, visibility 20 till 50 metres. There is an unbelievable variety of soft and hard corals, frog fish, schools of lion fish, barracudas, tuna and snappers. The highlight of this divesite is a magnificent cave that has a heavenly vertical swim through cave offering views of the surface so it’s easy to see why it’s called the Cathedral. The Cathedral entrance starts at 28m entering into a vast chamber where sunlight shines in. The chimney continues to around 16m depth depending on tides, where the famous photos of the Cathedral are usually taken. Occasionally you will meet sharks and at the north east side there is a plateau where you can find nudibranchs, shrimps and lots of other small marine life. The wall is covered with soft coral which offers a home to octopus, moray eels, snake-eels, nudibranchs and many more.
