Friwen Wall

The wall on Friwen Island starts with two small caves where fish swim upside down. From the bottom to the surface it is covered with gorgonian fans, sponges, black corals and whip corals. Divers glide along it looking for pygmy seahorses, nudibranchs and peacock mantis shrimp, and wobbegongs are seen. When the current picks up it becomes a pleasant drift, and mantas or eagle rays are sometimes seen off the wall.
