Shark Fin Reef

Shark Fin Reef

A fantastic 1 km long mixture of reef and boulders which consists mainly of hard corals. There are three pinnicles that penetrate the surface which gives the site the name Shark Fin Reef. The site has a lot of cliff like drop offs and in many areas extends past 40 metres.

The home of humphead parrot fish and Napoleon wrasse.

Boulders can go quite deep, well over 30m. Standard reef fish and excellent visibility (40m) which makes for a very nice dive.

Experienced scuba divers only.
