About Big W

Around the northernmost part of Malolo Island lies a popular wall dive that resembles the shape of a '�W'. Its drop-offs clock 500m and in the middle is the entrance to an abyss that will summon you to your death if you don't watch your depth. The coral is not the reason this site is popular however up to 100m visibility can add new dimensions to any diving experience. The outside wall of the dive can double as a drift and there are plenty of caves and swim throughs to explore.
