About Y Gala

A site well known for its beautiful underwater rock formations. These rocks are covered in dense hard and soft corals. Great balance of corals and marine life in abundance. Y Gala is situated several meters North of Barrakuda Point and shares a very similar underwater landscape. Due to depth and strong curremts, this site is recommended for advanced level divers only. Great drift dive.
