Lemon butterfly fish have become so accustomed to divers and snorkelers that they will rush to the surface. On the north side of the rock you will see some beautiful orange tubastrea coral and red encrusting sponges. Also pay close attention to the marine life that can be found in the nooks and crannies. Some of the life encountered here are Butterfly Fish, Octopus, Moray Eels, Colorful coral and Sponges.
