About this dive site
Visit these three shallow coral pinnacles and be amazed. Each has its own ecosystem, and the central pinnacle has a busy cleaning station. Down the coral slope is the large gorgonian fan coral the site is named after, and to the north is a series of table corals.
Hawksbill turtles frequent the area. Around the northern pinnacle you find a shoal of bigeye emperors and a large shoal of sergeant majors. The mooring is to the south on a sandy patch at 15 m.
Best for: All levels, snorkellers, photographers
