Cleaning Station (Kapalai)
Cleaning Station is a gentle drift dive along the Kapalai reef starting about 100 m from the dive station: the reef top is at about 5 m and divers cruise at around 16 m. Nudibranchs, cuttlefish, jawfish and resident turtles near an old wooden boat wreck are the highlights.
