Description
Bat Cave
Bats in the air and vibrant sea life below — the Bat Cave is a great spot for deep and drift dives.
The Bats Above and a Fantastic Sea Life Below
The entrance to Bat Cave lies near a few shallow coastal caves filled with resting bats. The dive itself features a steep wall that drops into deeper water, ideal for deep diving. Light currents make it suitable for a drift dive, often combined with the nearby Temple Point site. Divers occasionally report sightings of whale sharks in this area.
Fauna & Flora
Hard and soft corals. Jacks, octopus, turtles, nudibranchs, snakes, reef sharks, shrimps, shells, rays, scorpionfish, moray eels, parrotfish, sweetlips, flathead, and schooling barracudas.
