Best for intermediate divers, 10-24m, boat entry, moderate current.
Blue Tunnel is a cave and wall dive site located in the Gemiler Island area. The site features a cave system where light filters through the overhead environment, with the wall dropping into depths between 10 and 24 metres. Divers experience consistent visibility of 20 metres and moderate currents, requiring careful planning to dive into the current first. Due to the overhead environment and potential for entanglement, solid buoyancy control is essential. Boat traffic in the area necessitates the use of a delayed surface marker buoy upon ascent. Equipment rental is available for visiting divers. This site is suited for intermediate divers due to the depth and overhead conditions.
