Temple
Normally dived from the boat, Temple gets its name from the topography of the site which loosely resembles an underwater temple. This ’temple’ is easily dived, starting from the shallows of around 6m, until you make your way through a tiny swim through out in to the blue at which point you’re able to reach 30m+.
Here you’ll see octopus hidden among the reef cracks, nudibranch, and scorpion fish. You also have a great chance to spot moray eels, along with large Napoleon wrasse, and turtles.
