Diving ‘Round the Rock
The “rock” on which the Villa is built is surrounded by flats perfect for snorkeling and very (we mean very!) shallow water shore diving.
If shore diving in 8′ – 10′ of water is okay in your book, the dive is a thoroughly enjoyable experience. Besides, it certainly won’t interfere with your safe dive profile! The rocks and coral heads that encase the circumference of the Villa are home to many juvenile fish, including drums and queen angelfish. Purple sea fans wave in the shallows in every direction. Schools of squid hang midway in the water column with Needle Fish just under the surface. This is all to be seen just steps off the sandy beach. Moreover, you can dive in as often as you wish. Tanks for shore diving the house reef are included free of charge in your dive package.
It is also a great area to pop into for a familiarization dive. If you have been out of the water for some time or are using new dive gear, we encourage you to take a self-guided off-shore refresher dive to check your buoyancy and dive equipment while still within a safe distance of the dive staff and facilities.
Snorkeling is superb as well!
