 Additional Information

English (Translate this text in English): This is a not so well known dive site off the north tip of Grand Giftun island. It's a small horseshoe reef with a shallow swim through to a bowel reef that is absolutely filled with fish and coral. This was the most like swimming in an aquarium that I have found and one of my favorite dives.
