Explosion

The site is named after a Second World War ammunition store on the hill above that blew up and hurled huge rocks into the sea, and remains of bombs can still be found. From the anchor line the route passes big boulders with schools of small fish before the bottom falls away steeply. Between about 14 and 20 m stands a rock as big as a truck that looks like an elephant. Groupers, snappers, moray eels, barracudas, lionfish and octopus are seen, and visibility often exceeds 35 m.
