Little Big Rock gets its name from the distinctive formation where the dive boat moors: a modestly sized rock rising next to the cliff, forming a natural canyon. The dive begins right from the boat, with initial depths around 20 meters beneath it, though the exploration soon takes divers into shallower waters between the rock and the cliff, averaging around 10 meters.
Divers can swim through a stunning tunnel formed by fallen boulders within this canyon. About 10 meters long, the tunnel offers a playful swim-through for those who want to experience it up close, while others can follow along the outside.
Beyond the tunnel, the dive continues along the cliff wall, leading to a dramatic drop-off plunging to 40 meters. Open Water divers typically stay around 18 meters here, while Advanced divers can explore deeper, where, on rare occasions, lobsters make their home.
Once divers reach roughly half a tank of air, the route turns back. On the return leg, they encounter Little Big Rock again and swim around its opposite side before ascending gradually and returning to the boat.
With its mix of tunnel exploration, cliff walls, and occasional surprises from the local marine life, Little Big Rock is a dive that blends adventure with scenic beauty — a must for certified divers seeking variety and excitement in a single site.
