The Blow Hole


This is an extremely popular dive site located on the eastern side of the Island.  It has two entrances, one on the top of the reef at 14-16 metres just a short distance from the mooring.  However the main entrance is on the reef wall and is a large opening at 20-25 metres.  The main cavern is around 20 metres in length.  This is a superb dive with Lion Fish, Manta Shrimp, Wobbegongs and the unique Gnome Fish seen in this area.  It is often used for the start of a drift dive towards the southern sites
