Tie Dye Arch

Also known as: Tye Dye Arch

The entrance lies at about 18 m on the channel side, and the approach runs along a brightly encrusted wall. Inside, light enters through two passages filled with fish, and large schools of pink and blue maomao gather in the main archway. Kingfish and stingrays use the current through the arch in summer, and seals sometimes join divers in spring. Bronze whaler sharks have also been reported here. Because of its exposed position, operators only visit it in calm conditions.
