Anchor Bay reef is a varied dive site with an area of large boulders, rocky reefs, and Posidonia sea grass meadows. The boulders have fallen from the steep cliffs on both sides of the bay, creating nice swim-throughs and interesting formations surrounded by sandy seabed, especially on the northern side. There is a large variety of marine life to see around the reef. Divers often visit Anchor Bay’s cave and anchor on the same dive, ending the dive in the shallow waters of training area.

★★☆☆☆ If you're lucky there might be nice sea life, but otherwise the reef & boulders aren't that interesting.
