Marine life

You can see whale sharks as well as other types of sharks (hammerheads, nurse sharks, reef sharks, whitetip sharks), elegant giant manta rays, mysterious barracudas and moray eels, reef fish, moorish idols, humphead wrasse fish and clownfish. Schools of fish, seahorses, molluscs and crustaceans live among the corals. You can also see sea turtles, dolphins and jellyfish.
