Fire Coral Cave

Just a short swim from Permit Ledge is Fire Coral Cave. This is a small swim-through at the South end of Molasses Reef which derived its name from the encrusting yellow/brown Fire Coral on the reef.

The cave itself is often filled with small bait fish with schools of parrotfish and grunts nearby. Goliath Groupers, Spiny Lobsters and Eels are also common here.

At 20 to 30 feet this site is ideal for all levels of divers and the swim-through provides plenty of opportunity for divers to practice their buoyancy skills.
