Some of them contain parts of broccoli coral, while others are covered in soft white corals and its inhabitants. There are some caves and crevices which contain many lion fish and glass fish.

one of the main features of this dive site is the canyon which starts in an inlet in the shore reef at a depth of around 8m. There is either the main entrance or a little swim through to the canyon. For those that are qualified there is a cave on the right-hand side at 18 meters but lights and line are required as the bottom can get stirred up.

Beneath the towering cliffs that continue below the surface to disappear into the deep abyss the wall is covered with soft coral and honeycombed with numerous gullies and canyons that are home to hoards of glass fish and hatchet fish herded by red mouth grouper.

There is the wreck the Lovilla or Lullia which ran into the north of Gordon reef in September 1981.

bow and follow the keel to the rudder and screw, then descend around the stern.

filters through, a lamp helps explore the debris and machinery remains. The
inner compartments have disintegrated, resembling a cave, with an exit over the
boilers through a second large hole.
