Dixon’s Pinnacle
Three offshore pinnacles rising from 30 metres — one of Havelock’s two signature dives.
16–30metres
Giant rock pinnacles come up out of the deep, covered in soft coral and barrel sponges large enough to lose a diver behind. The site works as a natural cleaning station, which is why manta rays, whale sharks and turtles are recorded here more often than anywhere else on the island. Current is the price of admission and it can be significant.
