'Shark Hotel' (what’s in a name) is a beautiful reef, well known for the frequent encounters with sharks. The reef of 'Shark Hotel' is full of life, with whole families of spiny lobsters living in a single crevice. Little overhangs near the bottom of the reef, for nurse sharks to hide. And the ridges of the reef are great habitat for a variety of fish. Keep an eye out for stingray and eagle ray on and above the sand, while looking for turtles and barracudas on the top of the reef........ and don’t forget about the sharks!
On a dive on 'Shark Hotel' you can encounter: Reef sharks, nurse shark, turtle, stingray, eagle ray, barracuda, angelfish, trumpet fish, spiny lobster, porcupine fish, moray eel, schools of fish etc.
