PaiPai pass has a beautiful wall blanketed with yellow coral that drops from 15 to 150 ft. Small caves and caverns house white-tip sharks and dozens of coral fish; beautiful moray eels inhabit some of the smaller cavities. It is common to see the majestic hump head Napoleon wrasse, as well as eagle rays, tuna and batfish. Schools of barracuda, surgeons and parrotfish are often present and by getting close to the reef, it is possible to see nudibranches. A large variety of tropical reef fish live in this rich and varied seascape.

It is possible to dive the incoming or outgoing currents depending on level of experience and weather conditions. This dive offers a number of other possibilities that can be explained on site.
