Tower Rock

devil rays

Location: At the western end of the north coastline of Prinsep Island.

Above water this formidable rocky karst conjures up all sorts of images of what to expect in the depths below.

This is a place of many dive sites (9 in total) the rock itself is primarily a wall dive, although there are scattered rocks worth exploring away from the wall, frequented by more than a few Whitetip Sharks, blotched, jenkins and devil rays (mobular rays).

The wall itself features small green branch corals, with lots of holes and crags forming protective lairs for crayfish and other small invertebrate.

Solitary juvenile Blue ring and Emperor Angelfish can be seen fluttering around. There can be a lot of wave action here and the roar of the water crashing into the caverns and caves above the surface echoes around the site.
