Additional Information
Mostly new construction and development. It is also a dive site located in the area where the Ferries cross through to arrive to the main pier, therefore items may blow over board from these vessels.
Comments and Feedback
The Clean up dive went well and the group saw a Hawksbill Turtle on their journey.
