This site is also known as Fisherman's Bank with Stingray Alley. Once again, it is named after the fact that there is an abundance of Jackfish here. This site is must if you just want to do some snorkeling as it is a very close to the shore.

The northern end of the site features a downward sloping wall with lots of interesting things to see as the wall is porous and houses many life forms. There are also a number of caves with different entrance and exit points.

At the end of that, toward the south, lies a sandy coral-covered plateau moving with life. Further south, the plateau narrows into an "alley" after which another plateau can be found.

Apart from the ample amounts of Jackfish, you are bound to see some angel fish: emperor, regal, and yellowband. There are also many sting rays as well as plenty Blue-cheek Butterflies, Damselfish, Dominoes, Wrasses, and Goldfish Anthias. Corals are so diverse and include branching, brain, mushroom, and soft.
