About The Arch

Natural stone archway at 18 metres creates a dramatic frame for wide-angle photography, with sunlight streaming through the opening. Beyond the arch, the reef slopes into a sandy channel where whitetip reef sharks rest during the day. Nudibranchs and flatworms adorn the arch walls in incredible variety.
