The Canyon
 You get to the canyon through a lagoon (-3m) and pass a gap in the reef plate. You follow the reef plate with your left shoulder at a depth of 14 m.
After 7 minutes of diving you will find a coral block marked with lines of small bubbles  , caused by previous divers, sifting through the sand, with 2 entry points to the canyon. Using the right hand entry you dive into a small cave (3m x 3m) called "Glassfish Pool". Then, in single file, enter the crack which is the beginning of the canyon. At -30m you go into a large hall which is open above like a chimney. This is the usual exit from the Canyon. If you continue your dive into the deepest part, the Canyon drops down to a maximum depth of 53 meters. Here you will find an exit into the deep blue. Following the wall up to shallower areas you come back to the reef plate. After the return to the gap, you can end your dive with a safety stop and finish it in the lagoon before exiting the water.
