Ernie's Point

Depth: 5-27m
Intermediate
Cave/Reef
45min Dive

About This Dive Site

Ernie's Point owes its name to Ernie's cave, a small cavern in 21m where once lived Ernie the grouper. Ernie moved out many years ago but the dive site kept its name. The tiny cave is at the bottom of a large rocky outcrop, adorned with Sea Fans and often visited by smaller Groupers.

The site is home to various marine life including:

  • Small Groupers
  • Large Mantis Shrimps
  • Schools of Trevally
  • Schools of Mackerel
  • Various Reef Fish

Look for tube shaped holes around the mouth of the cave, large Mantis Shrimps often build their nests here. Deeper, at 27m, lies another small cave with abundant marine life around it. None of the caves are large enough to penetrate.

Schools of Trevally are common here, as are schools of Mackerel.

Current Warning: Beware that during big tidal changes, strong cross currents (eddys) often happen here, and you might be stuck in a very small area between conflicting currents. Plan your dive according to the tides.
