A little bay on the Southwestern point of Fanal Island. Easy diving in good conditions, Shallow area at top of reef with gradual slopes of rocky kelp reef to sandy bottom around 30 meters. Small cave in corner of the bay gives it its’ name, but is hardly worth diving. Suitable for all divers when conditions allow.

Depths from 0 m to 40+ m. Large rock faces and valleys in and around them. Exposed and can have swell or tidal currents. Wall drop off quickly, watch your depths.

The site is generally shallow, around 15m in depth (10-20m). The wreck is very broken, and is now part of the reef with some of the structure scattered around the sandy bottom of the bay.

The plateau depth around 6 to 10m large semi circle shelf . The back of the shelf is rock and large kelp bed at its mouth, around its wall.The wall drops sharply to 22-25m then slopes away to 32m , made of boulders mainly. The wall curves back around into the bay.There are also plenty of pinnacles to explore.

The reef is laid out as a series of fingers running from shallow water 10m to approximately 22 m at their deepest. Comprising of a rocky face in the shallows and turning into large kelp beds as it deepens. There are several swim through and a small arch at the end of the reef on one finger.

Depth ranges from 0m - 30m. Rocks off of Te Hue Point. Some rocks exposes to surface with other hidden rocks just under the surface. Interesting bottom topography, block-like rocks and structures. Plateaus with lots of fish and kelp.

Not an ideal dive spot. Sandy bottom with little changing terrain. Gradual drop off from beach until quick sandy drop off to 40+ meters. Little to no rocks.

Best dove during high tide - best snorkeled during the lower tides. Located on the right side of the island. The gem cave has two entries and they merge together in the back. It doesn’t go far back and there is a slight space between the surface and the cave ceiling. Very dim lights - bring a torch!

Tabletop Reef is a beautiful dive site that has quite a range of features the inner part of the reef system features steep bommies that drop down to the sandy bottom at around 10 meters. As you follow the reef North it flattens out to a kelp and sponge garden eventually reaching a sand flat at roughly 20 meters.

Located in the far Eastern side of the channel, hugging closer to the mainland. Depths from 10m !!! Notable water movement and currents with easterly conditions such and wind and swell. Tide timing is important for this dive site - incoming to slack tide is the best for it to be easier to get back to shore.
