Description: A small patch-reef zone featuring a range of habitats. Rugose reef areas attract plankton-feeding fi shes and their predators, while outlying areas, covered in soft corals, shelter flamingo tongues and other invertebrates. The surrounding sand flats are home to stingrays, sand tilefish, and Caribbean reef squid

Points of special interest (click on map for position):
1- Spanish hogfish cleaning station – As a juvenile, the Spanish hogfish is an avid cleaner, but as it matures it changes diet to feed on brittle stars, urchins and crabs
2- Soft coral zone – Many soft corals grow here, including sea fans and sea plumes, which make a perfect habitat for flamingo tongues and trumpetfish
3- Finger corals – Several large colonies of this robust branching coral serve as shelter for juvenile fish and small crustaceans
