About Cauldron of Death

This dive site is only suitable for very advanced divers and the entry to the site needs to be timed since heavy surge occurs every few minutes and one needs to enter at the correct time. Otherwise it's a great dive site with a cave located at the South West of the entry. There's also a large wall with various marine growth. The area is known for good marine life too.
