Dennis’ Dropoff

Right at the corner of the channel into Gibson Bight, this site offers shallow dives with the buoy onky sitting at 36 feet on top of the reef. With swim throughs and creviches you can take ’channels’ to the wall’s drop off for a launch to over 100 feet. Great for drift diving.

Critters at this site

There’s always big groupers hanging on this corner, curious and bold. Keep your eyes on the blue for bigger fish and an occasional eagly ray may cruise by here as well.
