Dove there on 07/27/22. Good easy dive. water temp was 86 degrees and vis was 30-40 feet. I saw lots of marine life. A pair of French Angle fish probably the largest I’ve ever seen. Also saw a ver small octopus in the wheelhouse debris off of the port side. Went on boat "Big Blue" using Red Alert Dive Center. Great crew and dive center. Will definitly use again !!!

I went scuba diving here on 7/30/2018. Average viz: 36-40ft/11-12m. Water temp: 71-75°F/22-24°C.
1-2 foot roller waves, get below 5 feet and all was good. when I was here there was thousands of schools of fish. we spotted a shark as it swam by about 20 feet from us.

Nice dive, lots of fish, a lot of big blue angelfish, big loggerhead, amberjack cutting through bait balls. Visibility from the pilot house up was very nice blue water 40-50ft, below the thermocline it was maybe 30.
