About this site

Dixon's Pinnacle sits off Havelock Island, known locally as Swaraj Dweep, in the Andaman Sea off India's eastern coast, and dive operators based on the island run boat trips out to it. The site is a rocky pinnacle reaching a maximum depth of around 35 metres, rated advanced due to medium current, though visibility is generally good. Divers regularly encounter angelfish, barracuda, batfish, grouper, lionfish, mackerel, manta rays, humphead wrasse, snapper, trevally, and tuna around the rock. Bannerfish, fusiliers, glassfish, octopus, reef sharks, sea turtles, surgeonfish, unicornfish, clownfish, and eagle rays have also been reported here.
