About Back Beach

A wonderful night dive spot consisting of two coral outcrops about 100m offshore. The dive is 10 deep but the marine life is so prolific that though the area is small you'll need more than one dive to feel you've really done it justice. Plenty weedy sea dragons don't dive in too much of a swell.
