This dive site is located at the South coast of Flores Island. This dive site is a volcanic cone with the tip at 6m deep. The south slope goes to a depth of 60m. At this dive site strong currents or sudden changes of current direction can be present. At around 20 m, the diver can observe along the wall big schools of breams, groupers, damselfish, rainbow wrasses, ornate wrasses, Guinean puffer fish, and inside the crevices, morays, fork-beards, and slipper lobster. At 35 m deep, there is a big cave with two entrances where narval schrimps along with a school of white travellys can be observed. When approaching the end of the wall, one can observe in the mid-water schools of barracudas, almaco jacks, white travellys, and Atlantic bonito, along with dense bait-balls of mackerel.
