No Name Pinnacle

Classic pinnacle off of Twins (another dive site) but much less divers than Twins due to its location being slightly deeper. Quite fun to dive for advanced divers.

Massive school of barracuda can usually be found between Twins and No Names, making the transit swim between both dive sites very nice!
