Danglebens Pinnacle
Danglebens Pinnacle is actually a collection of five pinnacles of varying shapes and sizes. The sandy bottoms that separate the pinnacles give this undulating landscape a unique appearance. The site is close to the shore and ranges from 30-130ft/10-40m. There is a mild current that runs through the pinnacles, making it unsuitable for beginner divers.
This dive spot takes its name from the Dangleben’s family who owned the land at the edge of the site. This submarine crater has an incredible underwater formation. Five colorful pinnacles expose an abundance of life at only 8 meters depth. The coral formations are especially impressive here. Tunas, trevallies, barracudas, wrasses, and snappers swim in schools around these reefs. On the pinnacle walls, you will find a macro life developed with seahorses or shrimps camouflaged in anemones to avoid predators. It is best to visit this dive site when there is some current so that you can see schools of fish.
