Elephant Reef
Named for a rock formation shaped like an elephant, next to the mooring. The dive centres on a circular plateau whose top lies at about 18 m, patrolled by large groupers. Advanced divers can explore the cliff dropping from the plateau; at the end small holes and caves between fallen boulders at 15–16 m. A community listing gives it as the island's deepest site.
