The Skylight Cave was one of my favourite dive sites.
With the opening directly above the cave system almost the whole cave was illuminated. On entering the cave, divers proceed to the middle of the cave below the skylight. The area on the far left of the diagram was unlit and required the use of torches. The group could then swim up at the back of the cave and surface in the top left corner. It is possible to stand in this area but with great care, many plants and organisms lived in this area and it would be a shame to recklessly crush them. The group could then swim back towards the skylight and swim down to the lower level.
A conger eel was regularly found in a crevice at the back of the Skylight Cave.
Part of the dive included showing the other divers the conger, if he was at home.
