Soft Coral Arch

The channel is carved naturally into a limestone rock island, and its walls carry dense soft corals in many colours with little hard coral. Nutrients carried by the slight tidal current feed the corals. Fusiliers, anthias and rainbow runners are the typical fish around the arch. The site is shallow enough for snorkelers and novice divers, who need to keep their fins away from the fragile corals.
