It seems that the name “Sharks Bay” derives from the fact that local fishermen once came here to unload the sharks they had caught. On the southern part of the bay, you will see an old sailing ship, Jump-About-Gib, which hit the reef many years ago. The classic dive runs through some large coral formations that rise from the sandy floor, sadly disfigured today by numerous waste objects. Here you turn into the entrance of the deep sandy canyon on the southwestern side of the bay. After following the canyon at 30m, some slowly up to 18m to explore a sandy plateau and the reef ledge. Which has a remarkable variety of hard and soft corals.
