The dive
The chambers are closed, but holes in the top let beams of sunlight fall inside. There is little current. You'll see nudibranchs, snappers, goatfish and fusiliers, and also Napoleon wrasse and moray eels.

Practical: the pin on the map comes from ORCA; PADI's lies ~2 km further west.
- Depth and profile
- A system of caverns in the south part of the reef: two large chambers, one north and one south, linked by narrow channels and swim-throughs. Inside 8–10 m; around the reef down to ~20 m (Red Sea Diving Safari) or 23 m (PADI). Duikersgids counts five entrances and exits.
- Configuration
- Shallow, with daylight through holes in the roof, but several chambers and passages: recreational gear with a primary and a backup light, with a guide (estimate).
Who can dive where
- At least Cavern
- Configurations: Backmount / twinset / Sidemount / CCR / Small cylinders / no-mount (speleo sumps)
- Goes down to 23 m (trimix or deco may be needed)
