About this site
The western side of Daedalus is a near-vertical wall plunging into the abyss, smothered in colourful soft corals, huge gorgonian fans and black coral. Anthias swarm the reef face while tuna, jacks and reef sharks patrol the edge, and the wall offers excellent shelter when the prevailing wind blows. Manta rays and the occasional whale shark are sometimes spotted in the blue.
