Scuba

Mary Island is a remote volcanic island famous for two things: a spectacular underwater crater and massive, swirling schools of jacks and barracuda that can block out the sun. It's a thrilling, action-packed pelagic dive.

Features

A remote island known for its massive schools of fish. The signature dive site features a 'point' where divers can witness a huge vortex of big-eyed jacks and a separate, massive school of chevron barracuda. Sharks are also very common.
