Location: Tulamben bay

Visibility: 5-30m

Depths: 6-40 m (20-130ft)

Diving Conditions: At 30 m the current normally flows south. The currents attract lots of fish, which you will see in the open water as you swim along the wall.

Travel time to site: 3 hours by mini-bus

Underwater Topography: Above the wall itself divers begin at the south end of Tulamben bay where you can walk in and swim along the black sand slope, then head out east to the corner where rocks poke out of the water just off the point. After a short swim, the sheer wall of the drop-off comes into view and sea life blooms.
The wall itself is a seascape of colourful sponge life and coral growth.

Marine life: Hawkfish, spot a tiny, rare pygmy seahorse, whale sharks (very rare) manta rays, sharks and dogteeth tuna, octopus, the occasional hammerhead shark.
They are all attracted to the plankton swept by the current from the Tulamben Slopes.

Main Attractions: Photography, large marine creatures, snorkelling, night diving, huge sponges.
