Overview

Mary's Place is a spectacular wall and swim-through dive famous for its dramatic volcanic crevice that splits the reef into deep, narrow canyons. Divers descend through towering coral-covered fissures filled with black coral, giant sea fans, barrel sponges, and colorful reef fish before emerging onto a vibrant wall. Turtles, spotted drums, lobsters, moray eels, and large schools of horse-eye jacks are common, with eagle rays occasionally passing by. Depths typically range from 14–33 m (45–110 ft), making it best suited to Advanced Open Water divers with excellent buoyancy control.
