About this site
Barracuda is a slope dive extending from the far outer edge of the house reef, reaching a maximum depth of 30 m. The terrain is a reef slope with sandy patches interspersed between coral formations, making it a relaxed and unhurried dive suited to beginners.
The site lives up to its name with the presence of chevron barracuda, and grey reef sharks and green turtles are also recorded here. Interesting critters are found in the sandy patches between the corals, adding a macro dimension to the dive alongside the larger species.
Conditions run to medium current and good visibility, with water temperatures ranging from 25.1–29.8°C. The site is diveable year-round, with a noted season of April through August.
