Piti Bomb
Hole |
|
|
The
Fish Eye underwater observatory is located in a "Piti Bomb
Hole". Contrast to its name some say the "Bomb Hole" was
actually created by collapsed caves that have been filled with
sea and sand.
The "Piti Bomb Hole" is a very popular dive location due to
the many fish and other marine life there. Our underwater
observatory provides the marine life with a hiding place and
enhances the population of fish much like the natural coral
reefs do. The local government has designated this area as a
Marine Preserve and has prohibited any activity that may be
harmful to the marine life. |
