The walls and sides of large boulders are highlighted by radiant soft corals. Around these are numerous parrotfish of all sizes, small dog-faced pufferfish and larger solitary clown triggerfish. Sharing the area are mixed amounts of leafy, brain, slipper and lip corals. Further down, giant sea cucumbers and blue seastars decorate the rocky surfaces. The prolific fish-life includes varieties of butterflyfish, parrotfish, lionfish and wrasse. To the north, manta rays and barracuda are frequent.
