Starting at 15mts deep, we have a long gallery with 2 sources of light entry points.
We can observe Almaco jacks, Barred Hogfish, Wrasses and lying still on the seafloor we find large round Stingrays.
The entrance is located at about 15mts deep.
At the end of the gallery, more experienced divers can stay in the protected waters of a passageway that takes them to a depth of 32mts. They can visit a wide cave that is regularly home to the schools of White Trevallies that gave the dive site its name.
