About this site
This dive site off Orchid Island features a stunning underwater pinnacle shaped like a mushroom, covered in vibrant soft corals. Strong currents bring schools of trevally, barracuda, and occasional reef sharks. The site drops to 30 meters, with excellent visibility in the clear Pacific waters. Divers can explore swim-throughs and overhangs teeming with colorful reef fish. Best suited for experienced divers due to the currents.
