Open Water Training Dive 4 White Rock-This is a popular dive site, where depth ranges from 2 – 20 meters. There are two giant submerged pinnacles which rise from 22 meters deep. You will come across an impressive array of hard and soft corals as well as many reef fishes such as groupers, parrot fishes, and wrasses. During night dives, you will come across huge barracudas as they hunt for their prey. Schools of butterfly fishes and angel fishes dominate this aquatic landscape. Beware of the trigger fish, which are hugely territorial by nature!

Open Water Training Dive 3 The Southwest Pinnacle consists of three rock formations, which range from 4 – 30 meters below the surface, representing a series of short wall dives. At the top of the pinnacles are blankets of underwater plant life in a stunning array of rainbow colors. Between the rocks are many bushy black coral sea whips and gorgonian sea fans. Leopard sharks are often encountered and it is even possible to meet the occasional whale shark. Giant groupers are common here, as are scribbled file fish, masked porcupine fish, yellowtail, barracuda and snapper.
