Lots of boulder piles and cobble stone habitat lay from the shallows down to the flats at about 60 ft. Beyond the flats it drops off to more small boulders and green polyp black coral. Bivalves and gastropods can be found all over the place. There are NO services at the site. All supplies MUST be brought by boat from the mainland.
