WEST WALL The topography around this island is sloping reef dropping off to majestic vertical walls, with sandy slopes in between. In the shallow zones you may encounter schooling barracuda, jacks and Napoleon wrasse. On the top of West Wall, an impressive display of thousands of swirling red-tooth triggerfish and pyramid butterflyfish can be witnessed.
THE EAR The Ear, eagle rays, sharks, and a fabulous swim-through are the attractions. The sandy areas should not be neglected, since large manta rays (4 to 6m wide) can be found during plankton blooms, and vast colonies of garden eels, titan and yellow-edged triggerfish are abundant. These sites are considered intermediate level due to potential depths and currents.
