  • Maintain neural buoyancy to avoid knocking or brushing against marine life.
  • Coral is alive and easily damaged. Avoid touching, grabbing, or standing on corals.
  • Please watch your fin wash. Sand can injure or smother small sea creatures and coral.
  • The underside of rocks are home to small creatures tha cannot live anywhere else. Please leave rocks, shells, and coral in place for the reef dwellers who need them.
  • Killing, damaging,riding or chasing marine life are examples of poor diving behaviour.
  • Trash can kill marine life. Please collect any trash you see on the beaches or in the water.
  • Feeding fish can make them pests, and some may even get aggressive toward divers.
  • Use permanent mooring buoy to secure your boat instead of dropping anchor.
