The site is known as a resting place for a variety of rays. Depths range from 9 to 10m on the sandy plateau while reaching 18 to 20 m on the seaward side. Each coral head is different, you can see large groupers, blue spotted stingrays, calamari, nudibranch and various kinds of corals, while the deeper wate...r is the home of leopard sharks. Special in spring - from March till April - many blue spotted stingrays gather here, giving the name to this site.
